- If you have enabled POP support and you want this to be the
- default method of accessing new mail, you will need to change

- a) "servers" defines the server to which you send outgoing SMTP
- traffic.
-
- b) "pophost" defines the server that runs the POP daemon, and to
- which `inc' and `msgchk' will query for new mail.

- originated on the POP server.
