Has anyone here successfully installed the POPFile spam filter with KMail? I have it running after a fashion with two problems remaining: (1) As a user, attempts to start POPFile running in Konsole yield the following: "Couldn't start the pop3 proxy because POPFile could not bind to the listen port 110. This could be because there is another service using that port or because you do not have the right privileges on your system (On Unix systems this can happen if you are not root and the port you specified is less than 1024)." I can however su root and it starts OK: "POPFile Engine v0.20.1 running Use of uninitialized value in addition (+) at UI/HTML.pm line 2913." How might I start POPFile as a user rather than as root? (2) How might I have POPFile start automatically at startup? It is not in the list of services in YAST, I assume because I compiled it myself. Thanks ahead for any advice. Albert

The popfile document pages have instructions for doing this. I found them at: http://popfile.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?HowTos/Linux After following those instructions, popfile shows up in the RunLevel menu under YAST2.
Thanks ahead for any advice.

Thanks Mark. I finally got it installed and running.
