I have a POP3 server at my isp, and an account set up on it. I also made the popper port without difficulty. However, there is no documentation with popper other than the man page, which says: (The official port number specified in RFC 1081 for POP version 3 is port 110. How- ever, some POP3 clients attempt to contact the server at port 109, the POP version 2 port. Unless you are running both POP2 and POP3 servers, you can simply define both ports for use by the POP3 server. This is explained in the installation instructions later on.) I want to know how much later these installation instructions will be coming along, because they are not on the manpage, nor anywhere that I can find them. I have all of my outgoing mail going into /var/spool/mqueue, and my sendmail flags are ``-bd -odq'', so I can send my mail in one batch with ``sendmail -q''. Now I just need to get popper to nab my mail from my POP3 account and drop it into /usr/home/mydir. Is this not what popper does? I would sincerely appreciate any help or direction toward a website or other source of documentation.
