	Eudora use the pop protocol to retreive messages from the
	mail server.  you need to install a pop server.  pop uses
	port 110 (older version used 109).  you can use qpop-2.1.4.3.tgz
	as a pop server.  its a port and a package.  (BEWARE of
	popclient-2.21.tar.gz, it does not work corectly, get the
	new version 3-(something)
