Hi All,
I have installed and have running QPopper 4.0.9 on a Mac G5 desktop
(OS 10.4.6). My problem is getting popper to auto startup after a
power failure or reboot. I attempted to follow the direction given in
the 'doc' for macs;
> Now, using /System/Library/StartupItems/CrashReporter as an example,
> create a /Library/StartupItems/QPopper that launches popper at startup
> time (have it test the POPSERVER variable and then you can set
> POPSERVER=-YES- in /etc/hostconfig to enable it). Store the popper
> executable in /Library/StartupItems/QPopper so that it stays with the
> QPopper startup item. Your StartupParameters.plist should have
> Requires = ("Resolver", "Network") and Provides = ("POP3"). May sure
> you launch popper in your QPopper script using the full path
> "/Library/StartupItems/QPopper/popper" or it won't work.
but I am a little s thick sometimes. The directions say "have it test
the POPSERVER variable and then you can set POPSERVER=-YES- in /etc/
hostconfig to enable it". How do I have it test the POPSERVER variable?
Thanks,
Jim
