Hi mail/pop gurus,

Chugging thru the mail archives didn't reveal a leader so :

I have a freeBSD 2.2-961006-SNAP box which acts as a mail server.
Sendmail did the job of delivering and receiving mail just fine.

This until a NT box showed up. The user of the NT box needs to receive
and send mail from the NT machine using the bundled in Pop3 client.
I need a minimal but stable POP3 server to run on the freeBSD machine.
I have seen references to popper, qpopper in the archives ipop3d in the 
man page and poppassd-4.0 and qpop-2.2 in the ports listing.

Is any of these know to work better than the others? Or is there
some other port/package known to work well?

Thanks in advance.
