please edit the file /etc/inetd.conf using the gedit on the Startx or
any other editor.
Go down the file and u will find an entry pop2 etc etc and another line
below it starting with pop3 etc etc
These two lines will be commented. Please remove the comment on the line
starting with pop3 etc etc and save the file. Reboot the machine and
your pop account holders will be able to get their mails.
