I don't recall a problem like that, but there were other problems, 
such as Panther requiring PAM to authenticate users (it doesn't like 
daemons getting the shadow password, even if you ask nicely) and a 
few other things.  The later 4.0.6 betas should work out-of-the-box, 
since ./configure detects if you need to use PAM or not (or at least 
tries to).

Hi All,
I am about to try and install qpopper4.0.5 on a Mac running OS 10.3.7. 
I currently have sendmail / qpopper running on a machine with OS 
10.2.8 and all is well. I have read though that qpopper does not 
install 'out of the box' onto OS 10.3.x. I am open for any suggestion 
or advise before I start. Thanks in advance, Jim
