It creates a hash file from the plain-text (pophash.db). So, it seems I am getting close. That popdb program, is it part of the qpopper compilation, or do I need to get it somewhere? BTW, I got the Qpopper to compile properly now; so disregard my last email on the compilation problem. I compiled it with the --enable-low-debug option, tested it, and it actually works. :) Well, the SSL over port 8765 did not work yet, but that's another matter. Right now I am focussed on ensuring that my pop-before-smtp will not break. Thanks for the advice so far, - Mark
