NAME

       pop_auth - set an user's APOP secret

SYNOPSIS

       pop_auth [-a] [! | name ...]

DESCRIPTION

       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.

OPTIONS

       -a     Set the same APOP secret for all maildrops definied in ~/.spop3d

FILES

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