I am having difficulties getting Qpopper and SSL to work together
with my Debian install. I created the certificates according to
the FAQ (http://www.eudora.com/qpopper/faq.html). I also had to
edit my 'inetd.conf' file and added the line:

pop3s  stream  tcp  nowait  root  /usr/sbin/in.qpopper \
   -f /etc/qpopper.conf

Without this line, netstat does not show anything listening on
port 995, so I added the above. When I try to pop my email with
Mozilla I get:

   Jan 26 19:39:51 real in.qpopper[22499]: connect from 207.191.210.241
   Jan 26 19:39:51 real in.qpopper[22499]: (null) at
   207-191-210-241.cpe.ats.mcleodusa.net (207.191.210.241): -ERR Unknown
   command: "\200f^A^C". [pop_get_command.c:152]

I searched through the archives and I found only one article with a
person asking the same question, but he received no answer. I believe
it was back in December. I also verified that the Debian package does
indeed enable SSL support. Would someone please give me some pointers
here? Right now I am tunneling using SSH, but I would prefer to use
Qpopper's SSL facilities. Thank you very much in advance.
