NAME
     poppassd — Eudora password change server

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/local/libexec/poppassd

DESCRIPTION
     poppassd is a server that allows users of Eudora, PCEudora, NUPOP and
     similar programs to change their password using their mail agent.

     poppassd is invoked by the internet server (see inetd(8)) for requests to
     connect to the pop3pw port as indicated by the /etc/services file (see
     services(5)).

EXAMPLES
     Assuming the binary is located in /usr/local/libexec an entry like:

     pop3pw stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/poppassd poppassd

     is required in the /etc/inetd.conf file.

     An entry like:

     pop3pw    106/tcp

     is required in the /etc/services file.

     Assuming you wish to log errors to /var/log/pop.log an entry like:

     local2.err	    /var/log/pop.log

     is required in /etc/syslog.conf.
