Hey. - excuse my newbieness, but.....
I searched the rh7 cd's for imapd but didnt find any.
The only imap rpm i can find is  imap-4.7c2-12.i386.rpm

I installed this, but when I run imapd at the command prompt, It wants to
talk to my tty, as if it was an IMAP session ! - The same applies to ipop3d
I checked /etc/services and it does list pop2, pop3 and imap, (not commented
out). - How do I get the actual dameons running for these ports ?

When I try to connect on ports 110 or 143 from another machine it doesnt get
any response, times out.
(This same machine can telnet ok)

I tried looking in the man page(s) but there's not much there !

Thanks,
Declan
