Some might have noticed my posts about setting up a firewall/filter using
FreeBSD the last week or so, now I have successfully this baby up and flying
and are looking into more innovative ways to use this installation.

On our network we have about 40-50 users on their own workstations ( a mix of 
Macs,Win95:s and NTs ). And as it is today, they themselves fetch/send the
mail from our mailprovider ( pop3 & smtp ) at their own will. What I am
trying to accomplish now is for the FreeBSD box to fetch all their mail (
maybe 1-2 times an hour ) and act as a POP/SMTP server to the users, carrying 
their mail for them and sending in out to the mailprovider.

Each person got their own password / uid on the mailserver so the FreeBSD box 
of course needs to know that information. My biggest concern is that I don't
want to create "users" on the FreeBSD box.

Example:

	USER ---> passwd:1212 uid:1313 ---> FreeBSD Box ---> passwd: JIh3egd uid:
a012.... ----> The users normal mailaccount

Is this possible to do? And if it is, what programs do you recommend to fully 
implement this task?

And while I am at it, at bootup of the FreeBSD box I get a message ( right
after the memory messages ) like this

- Bad BIOS32 Service Directory!

What is this?

Also is there any plans for porting VPND to FreeBSD, saw it and thought it 
might be a good project to support or?
