[cobalt-security] RaQ3/RaQ4 Qpopper-4.0.5fc2 PKG released



Hi Michael,

THANKS for the updated Qpopper - I've been running
your 4.0.4 version and like it much better over the
stock version on the RaQ..

I hate to sound green (lame had already been used)
-but I don't understand this:

Isn't PAM support necessary..? How does Qpopper check
against an id/s password without PAM..? I guess I just
don't understand how it all works..  :-P 

Thanks
Barbara
