3. Restarted xinetd #/etc/init.d/xinetd restart

4. telnet'ed to pop3 port. Because I am using the dovecot local delivery agent, postfix needs the dovecot master process and its associated processes already first running; otherwise, postfix will not be able to use the dovecot local delivery agent.

i just wonder ... when you run the dovecot master anyway.... why dont you run pop3 via the dovecot master aswell?

How would I get the pop3 process to run via the dovecot master?

in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf replace: protocols = imap imaps

with: protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s

and restart dovecot
