[Dovecot] Help with basic configuration

[Rob Breault]

I followed the information from the wiki here is my dovecot.conf file
and yet I can't get pop3 working. I need this to listen on pop3 for an
internal process but get email from smtp sources. So I would like to
have sendmail receive email from the world to a specific email address
then check the mailbox via a POP3 internal process. Any help would be
great.
