Does anybody have an open-source alternative?  I hate to say this on the 
qpopper list, but I'm not terribly impressed with the software.  I know 
it's freeware, but it's supported by a rather large commercial company, and 
you'd think they could give the community some indication as to what works 
and doesn't work - it's not like we're using weird hardware/software 
configurations!

Is there another POP3 server that may be more reliable and secure? And 
doesn't have 1+MB footprint ta boot?  Are there alternative encryption 
configurations I can run with qpopper that will give my clients secure 
e-mail?

I am appalled that I might have to bust out some low-level trace debugger 
to find out if I can run freakin secure POP3 connections!
