Now I'm just looking to solve #1. :) If courier-pop is anything like ipopd, it Just Works without any configuring. With ipopd, you just install it, then user foo can connect to port 110 with their normal username and password, and read mail out of /home/foo/mbox. So I'd guess what you want to do is configure postfix to deliver direct to /home/*/Maildir instead of /var/mail/*, and you're away. Send a test message to some user, telnet to port 110 with that user's normal login username and password, type "list" to see what's there. If that works, any pop3 client will work. -- Pigeon Be kind to pigeons Get my GPG key here: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x21C61F7F
