Everything works fine, except it doesn't seem to want to delete mail messages after I read them. It also leaves behind the temporary maildrop file (.user.pop or something). I'm wondering if I have popper being run as the wrong user or perhaps I have wrong permissions set on my /var/mail directory... ? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, chuck
