UW IMAP/POP3 (where is pop3d)

[forsythe]

I installed pine4.55 (UW IMAP/POP3), added pop3d and imapd files to the xinetd.d directory and restarted xinetd but only the imapd process shows. Should not the pop3d process show or will it only be invoked when someone attempts to retrieve mail?
this is on an Xserve running 10.2.4 OS X

Thanks,

Kelsey

greetings
sorry i know this is not helping your case but I have the same question. (sortof)

the daemon should fire up when the user logs in to get their mail.

i am following the this Article:
https://www.afp548.com/Articles/Jaguar/postfix2.html

I have just completed Step 1

xinetd has started and i have a running pid. Now,…
i guess the IMAP/POP file are already installed because i never installed them. i only upgraded pine to 4.55 ( as per the Article)

When the User trys to access the pop or imap account the username or password is not recognized. Since my user exists only in Netinfo do i have to export him to a flatfile? ( I don’t think i should have to do this ).
osx 10.2.6 server

any assistance is helpful.
