X    The Macintosh POPmail client Eudora offers a possibility
X    to perform the POP and SMTP conversations over a serial
X    (dialup) connection. Therefore is needed a 'psuedo-account'
X    on a machine where Eudora can login. That account must have
X    permission to execute senndmail and popper, not only local
X    but also remote (via rsh) on all machines where a popserver
X    or smtpserver must be contacted. Eudora is secretive with
X    the password while showing its progress (if properly
X    configured), but nobody can prevent a curious Macontosh
X    owner from looking with ResEdit (or alike's). It can be a
X    security leak.
X    The same considerations apply to the IBM-PC client NUPop
X    that also can use serial tty-lines to acquire mail.
X    
X    This program srialpop is written to take care of these
X    trade off's. It must be used as the pseudo-account's
X    loginshell. The commands which are recognized by the
X    program are 'logout' and 'exit' (to finish the session
X    of course) and 'telnet <host> <port> ...' which performs
X    a TCP/IP connection with the indicated host/port. The
