Re: replacing dovecot POP3 with qpopper (1st post)

Hi David

I only have 1 IMAP user all the rest use POP3. think I'll go live with
qpopper at the weekend and see how it goes.
as to maildir that's something i need to read up on. Cool website! , i am
hoping to visit the NASA sometime next year (only as a day tripper).
