Configure the pop3 mail service.
Edit the file /etc/xinetd.d/ipop3 and ensure that the file contains the following entries:
# default: off # description: The POP3 service allows remote users to access their mail \ # using an POP3 client such as Netscape Communicator, mutt, \ # or fetchmail. service pop3 { disable = no socket_type = stream wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/ipop3d log_on_success += HOST DURATION log_on_failure += HOST instances = 50 cps = 70 30 }
Ensure that the ipop3 service has been set to run at levels 3, 4, and 5 by typing the command chkconfig --level 345 ipop3 on.
Type the following commands to restart the mail service.
Wait for the first command to complete before typing the second command.
/etc/rc3.d/S80sendmail restart
/etc/rc3.d/S56xinetd restart
For example:
[root]# /etc/rc3.d/S80sendmail restart Shutting down sendmail: [ OK ] Shutting down sm-client: [ OK ] Starting sendmail: [ OK ] Starting sm-client: [ OK ] [root]# /etc/rc3.d/S56xinetd restart Stopping xinetd: [ OK ] Starting xinetd: [ OK ] |
Type the following commands to verify whether the mail service has restarted.
netstat -an |grep 110
netstat -an |grep 25
For example:
[root]# netstat -an | grep 110 tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:110 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN [root]# netstat -an | grep 25 tcp 0 0 192.168.1.104:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN |
