NAME
       pop2front - POP3 Front End

SYNOPSIS
       pop3front-auth cvm program [ args ... ]

       pop3front-maildir [ default-maildir ]

DESCRIPTION
       The POP3 front end is composed of two pieces: an authentication front end and a transfer back-end.

       Connections  are timed out after $TIMEOUT seconds of inactivity (defaults to 1200 seconds or 20 minutes), or $SESSION_TIMEOUT seconds after
       the connection was established (defaults to 86400 seconds or 24 hours).

       pop3front-auth authenticates the username and password sent by the client using the named cvm.  If successful, it sets up  the  environment
       and executes program.  It also offers RFC 1734 complient AUTH support through ``cvm-sasl''.

       pop3front-maildir  serves messages via POP3 out of a maildir.  If $MAILBOX is set, its contents are used as the path to the mailbox, other-
       wise the default-mailbox argument must be present.  If $MAX_MESSAGES is set, the total number of accessable messages  will  be  limited	to
       that  number.   In  addition,  if  either of $MAX_CUR_MESSAGES or $MAX_NEW_MESSAGES are set, the total number of accessable messages in the
       "cur" and "new" subdirectories respectively will each be limited to that number.
