   Has anyone answered this ?
   I am curious, also. 

   On the same line ... is it worth using the pop server with BSDI? I
   understand the qualcomm pop server does the more secure authentication,
   but any other issues ?

(worst come to worst, I'll muck with the pop server source to get it
to use a separate user:password file)
