14: The \fIpopd\fR server implements the Post Office protocol,
15: as described in RFC819 (revised, \fIMH\fR internal).
16: Basically, the server listens on TCP port 109 for connections and enters the
17: POP upon establishing a connection.
18: The `\-p' option overrides the default TCP port.

32: Previous versions of the server (10/28/84) had the restriction that
33: the POP client may retrieve messages for login users only.
34: This restriction has been lifted,
35: and true POB support is available
36: (sending mail to a mailbox on the POP service host
37: which does not map to a user\-id in the password file).
