Using and administering electronic mail

Using the POP server

Using the POP server enables many popular mail programs on PC and Macintosh systems (including Microsoft Outlook and other POP clients) to receive mail using your system as the server. Refer to your POP client documentation for instructions.

The POP3 server runs by default when the system is installed; it is listed in inetd.conf(SFF) and is invoked by inetd(ADMN) when POP requests are received.

Removing the POP server

If you want to remove the POP server software, use custom(ADM). In custom, specify the ``Mail User Agents'' component, then the ``SCO Post Office Protocol 3 Server'' package, and select Remove. This removes the startup instructions from /etc/inetd.conf.
