Hello,
I'm trying to find a guide/walk-through/howto on installing postfix/qmail on
freebsd, along with a pop3 server. I've been searching on google for awhile
now, anything i've found is old and/or doesn't talk about setting up pop3.
Use daemontools (http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html) instead. The pop daemon should be controlled by tcpserver, similar to the following:
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -H -l 0 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup \
<server-name> /bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1
An excellent step by step guide is here (http://www.lifewithqmail.org) which will walk you through setting up qmail.
I'm sure the instructions above work well - just wanted to point out the part about inetd.
Brian
