the popa3d goals
================

Is a POP3 daemon by Solar Designer.

Well, the goals themselves are obvious; they're probably the same for most
other POP3 servers as well. It's their priority that differs. For popa3d,
the goals are:

1. Security (to the extent that is possible with POP3 at all, of course).
2. Reliability (again, as limited by the mailbox format and the protocol).
3. RFC compliance (slightly relaxed to work with real-world POP3 clients).
4. Performance (limited by the more important goals, above).

This port is installed to be run from inetd, which is sufficient 
for normal usage. However, it is possible to build a stand-alone 
version, should you need better performance.

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

Committed. 

For the future, submit a shar archive if it is a new port and a diff if 
it is an update to a port. 
Thanks!
