Hi,

setup the PPP package which comes with Solaris 2.x. Look into the Sysadmin
Answerbook for setup information. It works ok for me.

In that way the client machine only need to open a socket whit the
Server one in ports:

        25 to use SMTP (send mail)
        110 to use POP3 (get mail)

In the Server you need to have so many users accounts as you want
to use. The username and password are the same that you use in a
rlogin with the user you choose.

If you need to know the SMTP or POP3 protocols in order to make
your own clients programs you can read the RFC 821 for SMTP and
RFC 1725 for POP3 server.

If you need more information you can mail me :

Hello,
I want to connect to a POP3/SMTP Mail server with Solaris 2.5.
Can anyone help?

Not the greatest solution, but Netscape Navigator will do it

Solstice Internet Mail Server 2.0 you can download it from

http://www.sun.com/solstice/Networking-products/sims/index.html

You may not need the server but it also includes a POP3, IMAP4
client for Solaris.

The server is on 60 eval, as far a I know the client is free.
