Matthew and anyone else reading;
Below are the processes currently running on my box right now that are
directly related to qmail, another thing I am trying to figure out, is if
'qread' and 'qstat' are actually necessary. Also below, you will see the
line stating "tcpserver -dHRvX -c 20 -x /etc/tcpcontrol/pop-3.cdb 0 pop-3
qmail-popup www.worldvibe.org checkvpw qmail" this points to checkvpw and
is using that for qmail-pop authentication.
Also the checkpassword file in /var/qmail/control/checkpassword
contatins the line "checkvpw"
And the file enclosed is 'run' from /service/pop3d/run this file is used
to start up the pop-3 service.
