I am using Red Hat Linux 6.0 on my Pentium PC and it is networked with my other Windows PC using
Samba. The shares and connectivity work beautifully. I want to set the Linux PC up as a mail
server ie. Linux PC downloads my mail from time to time and I can retrieve mail from my Windows
PC using Outlook Express. I downloaded and installed QPOP which is a POP3 program for retrieving
mail. In linuxconf there is an option to add a POP account. I added a POP account and added the
same mail account in Outlook Express but keep getting a "password rejection error" in Outlook
Express. Please Help !!!! Newbie
