[Spambayes] Newbie question on non-standard POP3 client

[Kendall Whitlatch]

ok... Looks like I had one configuration problem with the client. I
was pointing it to port 8880. Once I set it to port 110 I got a
failure. Before I was waiting up to 15 minutes to time-out.

Here's the log file results:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
POST /save HTTP/1.1

If I telnet to localhost 110 in a dosh shell I get a blank window. If
it hit <enter> it exits out to the shell prompt again.
