Install Dovecot apt-get install dovecot Dovecot configuration file is located at: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf Before we proceed we need to make some changes with dovecot configuration file vi /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

# specify protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s

protocols = pop3 imap

# uncomment this and change to no.

disable_plaintext_auth = no

pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv EXIT { wq } Now, create a user to test our pop3 mail with outlook adduser Caution: Always create a separate user to test your mail or ftp. DO NOT LOGIN WITH ROOT ACCESS. Restart Dovecot: /etc/init.d/dovecot restart
