Qmail will work with standard pop3 servers if it's set up to deliver to
mbox format mail files and to store them where the server expects to
find them. If it's using Maildir format you need to install the pop3
server that comes with qmail, but generally going the qmail route in the
first place would mean to expect doing some things by hand.
But Clinton what makes you think there's money in pop3 hosting when
there are so many places offering it for free and with most ISPs
offering multiple POP accounts anyway?
