information to keep an exact correspondence

.RI \*(lq Audit\-file \*(rq
-will be in the user's nmh directory unless a full path is specified.

.B Inc
will incorporate even improperly formatted messages into the
to be quiet and not ask any questions at all. This is useful for putting
.B inc
in the background and going on to other things.

-.PP
-.SS "Using POP"
-.B inc
-will normally check local mail drops for mail, as covered above. But
-if the option
-.RI \*(lq pophost \*(rq
-is set in
-.RI \*(lq mts.conf \*(rq,
-or if the
-.B \-host
-.I hostname
-switch is given, or if the
-.B $MAILHOST
-environment variable is set, then
-.B inc
-will query this POP service host for mail to incorporate. If
-.B $MAILHOST
-is set and
-.B \-host
-is specified as well, the commandline switch will override
-the environment variable.
-.PP
-The default is for
-.B inc
-to assume that your account name on
-the POP server is the same as your current username. To specify
-a different username, use the
-.B \-user
-.I username
-switch.
-.PP
-When using POP, you will normally need to type the password for
-your account on the POP server, in order to retrieve your messages.
-It is possible to automate this process by creating a
-.RI \*(lq .netrc \*(rq
-file containing your login account information for this POP server.
-For each POP server, this file should have a line of the following
-form. Replace the words
-.IR mypopserver ,
-.IR mylogin ,
-and
-.I mypassword
-with your own account information.
-.PP
-.RS 5
-.B machine
-.I mypopserver
-.B login
-.I mylogin
-.B password
-.I mypassword
-.RE
-.PP
-This
-.RI \*(lq .netrc \*(rq
-file should be owned and readable only by you.
-.PP
-If
-.B inc
-uses POP, then the
-.B \-pack
-.I file
-switch is considered. If given, then
-.B inc
-simply uses the POP to
-.B packf
-the user's maildrop from the POP service host to the named file. This switch
-is provided for those users who prefer to use
-.B msh
-to read their maildrops.
-.PP
-For debugging purposes, you may give the switch
-.BR \-snoop ,
-which will allow you to watch the POP transaction take place
-between you and the POP server.
-.PP
-If
-.B nmh
-has been compiled with APOP support, the
-.B \-apop
-switch will cause
-.B inc
-to use APOP rather than standard POP3 authentication. Under APOP, a
-unique string (generally of the format
-.RI < pid . timestamp @ hostname >
-) is announced by the POP server.
-Rather than `USER
-.IR user ',
-`PASS
-.IR password ',
-.B inc
-sends `APOP
-.I user
-.IR digest ',
-where digest is the MD5 hash of the unique string followed by a
-`secret' shared by client and server, essentially equivalent to the user's
-password (though an APOP-enabled POP3 server could have separate APOP and plain
-POP3 passwords for a single user).
-.B \-noapop
-disables APOP in cases where it'd otherwise be used.
-.PP
-If
-.B nmh
-has been compiled with KPOP support, the
-.B \-kpop
-switch will allow
-.B inc
-to use Kerberized POP rather than standard POP3 on a given invocation.
-If POPSERVICE was also #defined to "kpop",
-.B inc
-will be hardwired to always use KPOP.
-.PP
-If
-.B nmh
-has been compiled with SASL support, the
-.B \-sasl
-switch will enable
-the use of SASL authentication. Depending on the SASL mechanism used, this
-may require an additional password prompt from the user (but the
-.RI \*(lq .netrc \*(rq
-file can be used to store this password). The
-.B \-saslmech
-switch can be used to select a particular SASL mechanism.
-.PP
-If SASL authentication is successful,
-.B inc
-will attempt to negotiate a security layer for session encryption.
-Encrypted traffic is labelled with `(encrypted)' and `(decrypted)'
-when viewing the POP transaction with the
-.B \-snoop
-switch.
