Hello,
I'm using qpopper (V 3.0.2) and it runs like a champ...:-)
You must ensure to have a client that supports APOP authentication,
like Pegasus for WIN, and you have to enable it of course...
If you compiled qpopper with APOP support, you just need to set his pwd
with popauth .... and it works, but only with APOP if the users pwd is set
in
ex. /etc/pop.auth, normal POP3 pwd will not be recognized!
I don't know if Outlook/Netscape (WIN) supports it....NS-Mail that comes
with
Crashicator (Linux) does not support APOP...but fetchmail does...:-)
