POP3 and AIX

Here is my situation: I have an old AIX box(AIX 4.3.3) that runs an application absolutely crucial to the company. I am trying to set up one of my client machines (Windows 2000, Outlook Express) as a POP3 client. I cannot get the download to occur, so I look up the error code that Outlook Express gives me, and it says, basically, that POP3 is not open on my server.

I go to the server to do a netstat -an and, sure enough, 110 is not there. Sendmail is running on the server, because I was able to send a test email to my Hotmail account just fine. I will not be sending email with this set up, just collecting emails that root gets concerning applications, security, etc. Do I need a separate pop3 daemon installed on my server, or am I just forgetting something simple?

Never mind. It is a separate daemon. I need to install it separately. Thanks, anyway.
