It's their priority that differs. For popa3d, +the goals are: + +1. Security (to the extent that is possible with POP3 at all, of course). +2. Reliability (again, as limited by the mailbox format and the protocol). +3. RFC compliance (slightly relaxed to work with real-world POP3 clients). +4. Performance (limited by the more important goals, above). + +This package is installed to be run from inetd, which is sufficient +for normal usage. However, it is possible to build a stand-alone +version, should you need better performance. (This is currently not +supported by the package system.) |
