Configure xinetd.
Look into /etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow.
Add your local network in one of these files if necessary.

Subject: [expert] Pop3 not working under LM7.2, xinetd
Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2000 15:50:30 +0530

Hello!

Using Linux Mandrake 7.2, normal installation, how is pop3 e-mail
enabled? From what I can gather, xinetd is now being used instead of
inetd. I therefore assume that xinetd needs to be configured to enable
pop3 access--is this true?  Currently, users from other machines on the
network are getting an error message similar to: "server unexpectedly
terminated the connection".  I cannot find any warnings or errors under
the log files in the mail directory.

I was not able to find any example configuration file for pop3 in the
man pages for xinetd.conf or xinetd.

Thank-you,

Damon
