Hey all,
	I am currently Linux with the 1.004 in.pop3d for mail retrieval, I have
recently started using FreeBSD and I am thinking seriously about
converting the mail server over to FreeBSD. Two questions:

1. What do you recommend for a pop server?

2. I have several users with usernames over 8 chars, I know you have to
recompile the kernel to allow more than 8, but what other problems might
I run into if I do this?

Later
Kelley
