Hello all,
Everything was running fine when I used the default configuration:
smtp server port 25 (with sendmail not listen to this port)
pop3server port 110
nntp server port 119
I changed pop3server port to 1555 (greater than 1024) -> still able to
send messages
to the James server (by seeing it process emails) == message retrieval
is still OK?
1) Does it matter which value I give to pop3server's port? How is the
port used
for message retrieval?
I changed smtp server port to 2500, and start sendmail so that sendmail
can listen to port 25 again. -> can not send messages to the James
server anymore. (no email processing when I try send emails to it)
2) So how can I still receive messages in James when its smtp port is
configured something other than 25.
Because I just want to run not as root.
3)Some simple question:
When James is not up, and someprocess tries to send emails to it.
When James is back up, it is able to handle these emails. How can it do
it, using pop3server or smtp server...?
SMT = sending/receiving emails ???
POP3 = retrieving emails ???
Sorry for a long message.
Thanks,

Not if you want to attach to the privileged ports. *nix systems
consider
ports < 1024 as restricted for root access only. This is specifically
to
prevent users from being able to impersonate key services.
