POP3サーバ
   
  POPサーバとはメールを受信するサーバのことです。

ここでは比較的設定の簡単な Dovecot と言うソフトを使いPOP3サーバを立ち上げます

 ## Mailbox locations and namespaces
 ##

 # Location for users' mailboxes. This is the same as the old default_mail_env
 # setting. The default is empty, which means that Dovecot tries to find the
 # mailboxes automatically. This won't work if the user doesn't have any mail
 # yet, so you should explicitly tell Dovecot the full location.
 #
 # If you're using mbox, giving a path to the INBOX file (eg. /var/mail/%u)
 # isn't enough. You'll also need to tell Dovecot where the other mailboxes are
 # and where Dovecot can place its index files. This is called the "root mail
 # directory", and it must be the first path given in the mail_location setting.
 #
 # There are a few special variables you can use, eg.:
 #
 # %u - username
 # %n - user part in user@domain, same as %u if there's no domain
 # %d - domain part in user@domain, empty if there's no domain
 # %h - home directory
 #
 # See doc/wiki/Variables.txt for full list. Some examples:
 #
 # mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir
 # mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
 # mail_location = mbox:/var/mail/%d/%1n/%n:INDEX=/var/indexes/%d/%1n/%n

 # If you need to set multiple mailbox locations or want to change default
 # namespace settings, you can do it by defining namespace sections:
 #
 # You can have private, shared and public namespaces. The only difference
 # between them is how Dovecot announces them to client via NAMESPACE
 # extension. Shared namespaces are meant for user-owned mailboxes which are
 # shared to other users, while public namespaces are for more globally
 # accessible mailboxes.
 #
 # REMEMBER: If you add any namespaces, the default namespace must be added
 # explicitly, ie. default_mail_env does nothing unless you have a namespace
 # without a location setting. Default namespace is simply done by having a
 # namespace with empty prefix.

 # Hierarchy separator to use. You should use the same separator for all
 # namespaces or some clients get confused. '/' is usually a good one.
 # The default however depends on the underlying mail storage format.

 # prefixes "~/mail/", "~%u/mail/" and "mail/".

 ## Mailbox handling optimizations

 # mime.parts, imap.body, imap.bodystructure
 #
 # Different IMAP clients work in different ways, so they benefit from
 # different cached fields. Some do not benefit from them at all. Caching more
 # than necessary generates useless disk I/O, so you don't want to do that
 # either.
 #
 # Dovecot attempts to automatically figure out what client wants and it keeps
 # only that. However the first few times a mailbox is opened, Dovecot hasn't
 # yet figured out what client needs, so it may not perform optimally. If you
 # know what fields the majority of your clients need, it may be useful to set
 # these fields by hand. If client doesn't actually use them, Dovecot will
 # eventually drop them.
 #
 # Usually you should just leave this field alone. The potential benefits are
 # typically unnoticeable.

 # and inotify with Linux to reply immediately after the change occurs.
 #mailbox_idle_check_interval = 30

 # Save mails with CR+LF instead of plain LF. This makes sending those mails
 # take less CPU, especially with sendfile() syscall with Linux and FreeBSD.

 ## Maildir-specific settings

 ##
 ## mbox-specific settings
 ##

 # Which locking methods to use for locking mbox. There are four available:
 # dotlock: Create <mailbox>.lock file. This is the oldest and most NFS-safe

 # will need write access to that directory.
 # fcntl : Use this if possible. Works with NFS too if lockd is used.
 # flock : May not exist in all systems. Doesn't work with NFS.
 # lockf : May not exist in all systems. Doesn't work with NFS.
 #
 # You can use multiple locking methods; if you do the order they're declared
 # in is important to avoid deadlocks if other MTAs/MUAs are using multiple
 # locking methods as well. Some operating systems don't allow using some of

 # When mbox changes unexpectedly we have to fully read it to find out what
 # changed. If the mbox is large this can take a long time. Since the change
 # is usually just a newly appended mail, it'd be faster to simply read the
 # new mails. If this setting is enabled, Dovecot does this but still safely
 # fallbacks to re-reading the whole mbox file whenever something in mbox isn't
 # how it's expected to be. The only real downside to this setting is that if

 # Delay writing mbox headers until doing a full write sync (EXPUNGE and CHECK

 # OSX Mail. Outlook Express breaks more badly though, without this it
 # may show user "Message no longer in server" errors. Note that OE6 still
 # breaks even with this workaround if synchronization is set to
 # "Headers Only".
 # outlook-idle:
 # Outlook and Outlook Express never abort IDLE command, so if no mail
 # arrives in half a hour, Dovecot closes the connection. This is still
 # fine, except Outlook doesn't connect back so you don't see if new mail
 # arrives.
 # netscape-eoh:
 # Netscape 4.x breaks if message headers don't end with the empty "end of
 # headers" line. Normally all messages have this, but setting this
 # workaround makes sure that Netscape never breaks by adding the line if
 # it doesn't exist. This is done only for FETCH BODY[HEADER.FIELDS..]

 # http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication
 #
 # By adding master=yes setting inside a passdb you make the passdb a list
 # of "master users", who can log in as anyone else. Unless you're using PAM,
 # you probably still want the destination user to be looked up from passdb
 # that it really exists. This can be done by adding pass=yes setting to the
 # master passdb.
 #
 # http://wiki.dovecot.org/MasterPassword

 # Users can be temporarily disabled by adding a passdb with deny=yes.
 # If the user is found from that database, authentication will fail.
 # The deny passdb should always be specified before others, so it gets
 # checked first. Here's an example:

 #passdb passwd-file {
 # File contains a list of usernames, one per line
 #args = /etc/dovecot.deny
 #deny = yes
 #}

 # PAM authentication. Preferred nowadays by most systems.
 # Note that PAM can only be used to verify if user's password is correct,
 # so it can't be used as userdb. If you don't want to use a separate user
 # database (passwd usually), you can use static userdb.
 # REMEMBER: You'll need /etc/pam.d/dovecot file created for PAM
 # authentication to actually work.
 passdb pam {
 # [session=yes] [setcred=yes] [cache_key=<key>] [<service name>]
 #
 # session=yes makes Dovecot open and immediately close PAM session. Some
 # PAM plugins need this to work, such as pam_mkhomedir.
 #
 # setcred=yes makes Dovecot establish PAM credentials if some PAM plugins
 # need that. They aren't ever deleted though, so this isn't enabled by
 # default.
 #
 # cache_key can be used to enable authentication caching for PAM
 # (auth_cache_size also needs to be set). It isn't enabled by default
 # because PAM modules can do all kinds of checks besides checking password,
 # such as checking IP address. Dovecot can't know about these checks
 # without some help. cache_key is simply a list of variables (see
 # doc/variables.txt) which must match for the cached data to be used.
 # Here are some examples:
 # %u - Username must match. Probably sufficient for most uses.
 # %u%r - Username and remote IP address must match.
 # %u%s - Username and service (ie. IMAP, POP3) must match.
 #
 # If service name is "*", it means the authenticating service name
 # is used, eg. pop3 or imap (/etc/pam.d/pop3, /etc/pam.d/imap).

 # dict: Keep quota stored in dictionary (eg. SQL)
 # maildir: Maildir++ quota
 # fs: Read-only support for filesystem quota
 #quota = maildir

 # ACL plugin. vfile backend reads ACLs from "dovecot-acl" file from maildir
 # directory. You can also optionally give a global ACL directory path where
 # ACLs are applied to all users' mailboxes. The global ACL directory contains
 # one file for each mailbox, eg. INBOX or sub.mailbox.

 # Trash plugin. When saving a message would make user go over quota, this
 # plugin automatically deletes the oldest mails from configured mailboxes

 # is a text file where each line is in format: <priority> <mailbox name>
 # Mails are first deleted in lowest -> highest priority number order
