Ah, there's your problem! You've infected your network with AIDS (apple

That is, IF Outlook decides to actually work for a change...
Sorry... I just can't help myself when these things come up!

O.k. in all seriousness, it looks like you simply need to install IMAP or
cucipop (or is it cicupop, or maybe ch-ch-ch-chia-pop?) and make sure you
have an appropriate line in /etc/inetd.conf for the pop server. [o.k. I
lied -- I have a hard time being completely serious at this time of the
day...]
If you've already installed a pop daemon on the linux box, then most
likely you just forgot the line in /etc/inetd.conf -- make sure if there's
one there that it isn't commented out.
