     Hi, managers!
 
  Failing to setting up pop server (post office protocol). included in our
  alpha 3000 whit OSF/1 v1.2.
  Following this steps.
  1.-We add new account named pop whit /var/spool/pop as home directory.
   2.-We create a file named POP whit as pop database whit /var/spool/pop
        as home directory.
        then we add an entry in to POP file in the following format.
        jgaona::jgaona:encrypted password::::::0.
    3.-Running popaka produces a string.
         jgaona: jgaona_at_pop.
     4.-Edit aliases file and add string jgaona: jgaona_at_pop.
     5.-Run newaliases.
     6.-run popd -p 110 > /tmp/null & and produces.
          [7] options=0x0 port=110

         Eudora 1.4.4 software used in pc's is already running ok.

         We test and telnet pop server to port 110
          %telnet alpha1.sal.uadec.mx 110
              trying...
              connected to alpha1.sal.uadec.mx.
              Escape character is ' `]' .
              +OK alpha1.sal.uadec.mx POP server ready comments to:post
                 master_at_alpha1.sal.uadec.mx.
              user 'jgaona'
              +OK password required for 'jgaona'
              pass (password).
               +OK maildrop empty.
 
            When i send a mail to pop data base user, nothing gets put in the
             expected /usr/spool/pop/jgaona file. i run ´"mailq" to check on if
             it's stuck, and get the following.

                                            (operating system error)
                                                                            
 jgaona_at_pop

              We need advice and clues about this:

              1.- POP data base user failing to get or receive mail.
               2.-Pc's users can' t pickup mail.

                                        
               Many thanks for yous replies.
                attentamente chuy gaona.
