I have heard through the grapevine that MIT has integrated Kerberos authentication into the Post Office Protocol (POP3). I suspect that MIT uses the MH package, and that this is the package into which they have integrated Kerberos. I have asked about this once before (months ago) on the MH list, and now I am asking again. If MIT has Kerberized (MH) POP, is it available? Where can I get the source? If I am mistaken, could someone from MIT please clarify? Jim Ault, ITS Systems Programmer, ault@rpi.edu, +1 518 276 2750

Project Athena uses a Kerberized POP3 in a number of clients; MH, XMH, Gnuemacs RMAIL, and the Andrew mail reader. A server based on the Berkeley "popper" with Kerberos support added can be obtained from net-dist.mit.edu (18.72.0.3) in /pub/Berkeley-Popper. Pard of the README file from that directory follows: >popper-1.7k is a modified version of popper for Kerberos among other >things. See README.mit in the tar file for details. -Ron Hoffmann MIT Network Services
