Thanks so much, Ben. Here's part of what I got when I did netstat -lan: tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1024 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:1025 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:783 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:111 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:6000 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:22 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:631 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 192.168.1.101:3351 192.168.1.100:139 TIME_WAIT I don't see 110 anywhere, so I guess we can conclude that my pop daemon is in fact not running and this could be the source of my problems. The irritatingly newbie question I have now is how do I turn my pop daemon on? I assumed this would have been done automatically when I installed the imap-2001a-18.i3 RPM containing ipop3d that I downloaded from Red Hat, but, as with a lot of things lately, my memory is fuzzy even as to whether I actually installed this RPM (if indeed I had to download it separately at all; maybe it even came with my download and install of the whole RH9 itself--I sure wish I could remember these things). Anyway, if you could help me get my pop server running, I'd appreciate it. Thanks, and thanks also for your extensive response to my last post.
