    For what it's worth, qmail's pop3d is also pretty solid. Very small, very
    lightweight, and you get to write your own password authentication if you
    want.

    For an MTA however, I don't use qmail, I use postfix (but with maildir).

    Although, this thread has convinced me to try out tpop3d...I'll definitely
    give it a look.
