Scott,

Add the user to James using the telnet interface. You will have to specify a
case-sensitive password.

In your pop3 client specify the user (no domain) and password exactly as you
typed it in the step above and be sure to specify the IP address or server
name for your James server.

That's all there is to it.

Check out the quickstart docs. on the James Wiki -
http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?JamesQuickstart - for more
tips.
