This Document describes how to install the Qualcomm Popper on FreeBSD with SSL.

I. Install QPopper from ports.

# cd /usr/local/mail/qpopper
# make install && make clean

II. Add SSL support by making configuration file (assuming you already have a imapd.pem)…

# vi /usr/local/etc/qpopper.conf
set statistics
set downcase-user
set timeout = 180

set clear-text-password = tls
set tls-server-cert-file = /usr/local/certs/imapd.pem
set tls-private-key-file = /usr/local/certs/imapd.pem

III. Add lines into inetd.conf

# vi /etc/inetd.conf
pop3s stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/qpopper qpopper -l 2 -f /usr/local/etc/qpopper/qpopper.conf
pop3 stream  tcp nowait  root /usr/local/libexec/qpopper qpopper -l 2 -f /usr/local/etc/qpopper/qpopper.conf

IV. Restart inetd.

# killall -HUP inetd
