Ok folks I am back. As some of you know, during the last couple of days, I posted messages after messages because I could not get POP3 working. I am using "qmail". I received quite a large number of responses offering suggestion/help. Finally, yesterday, I posted a message with heading "OK I give up!!!". Well it brought a flood of responses all but one negative (this individual wrote that I was WHINING). Now the good news. I started from scratch, re-formatted the disk and reinstalled the entire Linux software (8-10 applications). As far as Qmail, specially, POP3, DAMNED THING WORKED THE FIRST TIME. So what was the problem when I could not get POP# under qmail working, we will never know. I am posting this message to let everyone know, that I am thankful for all your help and encouragement. This mailing list has some of the best helping people. As for the person, who said that I was WHINING, you need a shrink. Kirti
