Unix                                              OCTOBER 1999                                       pop_auth(1)

Pop_auth  asks  user  for his APOP secret and stores this secret after encryption in ~/.spop3d file. Used
       encryption is very weak and protects only from curious system administrator  who  accidentialy  looks  at
       ~/.spop3d file.  Don't use your account password as the APOP secret!!!

       Pop_auth  will  set  APOP  secret  for all maildrop names specified in the command line.  You can use the
       special ! name to specify your default maildrop.  If called without any arguments, pop_auth will set APOP
       secret for the default maildrop.

~/.spop3d
              User configuration file. APOP secret is written here.
