[cobalt-security] ipop2d hole?

[Mike Vanecek <nospam99@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I noticed in my logs a bit of pop2 activity, to wit:

[admin@vanecek /etc]$ grep -i "pop2" /var/log/*

I have edited inetd.conf to disable pop2 services which should close up that
hole? By doing so, am I going to lose any needed email services or
connectivity?

Thanks, Mike.
