The \fIpopd\fR server implements the Post Office protocol,
as described in RFC1081 and RFC1082.
Basically, the server listens on the TCP port named \*(lqpop\*(rq
for connections and enters the
POP upon establishing a connection.
The `\-p' option overrides the default TCP port.

For historical reasons, the \fIMH\fP POP defaults to using
the port named \*(lqpop\*(rq (109) instead of its newly assigned
port named \*(lqpop3\*(rq (110).
See the POPSERVICE configuration option for more details.
.sp 
Previous versions of the server (10/28/84) had the restriction that
the POP client may retrieve messages for login users only.
This restriction has been lifted,
and true POB support is available
(sending mail to a mailbox on the POP service host
which does not map to a user\-id in the password file).
