Hi.  Well, I've just finished configuring everything for PPP (went very
well) and I can now send mail from my machine here at home.  I'm still
not sure, though, how to *read* news sent to my PPP account (jbm@pic.net).
They're spooling it up and holding it for me to retrieve via POP,
apparently (the Windows software they sent out included Eudora)...  I
found popper (qpop) in amongst the 2.0 packages, but that seems to be a
POP server...  am I wrong in assuming that I need a POP *client*?  If
you have experience with retrieving mail via POP on a FreeBSD box, I'd
love to hear how you're doing it.

Please forward responses to madison@netcom.com, as I won't really be 
able to read any sent to my pic.net account until I get this worked
out :)

Thanks for the help!
