It should be possible to do TheBat<-SpamPal<-POPFile<-ISP. FWIW, I had
Norton Antivirus 2001 working with Spampal, and both wanted 127.0.0.1
(localhost).

AFAICT, the trick is to get Spampal to use a non-standard port (it
configured itself to use port 1110 in my case). You then need to tell
TB to connect to localhost on port 1110 with username
<whatever_POPFile_needs>@<isp_pop3_server>

Alternatively, if you can configure POPFile to use a non standard
port, you can do it your way around. See the Spampal docs about how to
pass the non-standard port info.

Check out the Spampal documentation for the a more detailed
explanation. The Installation page is quite thorough.
