NAME
       fakepop - a fake pop3 daemon

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/sbin/in.fakepop

DESCRIPTION
       fakepop	is  a  fake  pop3  daemon.  It	returns always the same messages to all users, it does not care about usernames and passwords. All
       user/pass combinations are accepted.
       The main purpose of fakepop is to advice users that your server only accepts pop3-ssl and they have wrongly configured  pop3  without  ssl.
       You  can  customize  messages  in  /etc/fakepop/ directory to teach your users how they should configure their mail clients to use pop3-ssl
       instead of pop3.
       You can also use it to: advice users that the server is under maintenance; teach the users how to configure the mail client to use  another
       new server; or any other usage you can imagine :-)

OPTIONS
       This program discards any command line option.

CONFIGURATION
       You  can  put  all  the	messages  you  want  to  deliver  to  the  users that connect to fakepop at /etc/fakepop/ for more information see
       /usr/share/doc/fakepop/examples/
