03.11 How can I run inc automatically with POP?
Date: Mon, 27 Nov 1995 12:23:51 -0800
If MH has been compiled with RPOP, then the POP server host either
needs to have your host in /etc/hosts.equiv or in your .rhosts file.
Then add to your MH profile:
inc: -host cuckoo
given that "cuckoo" is the name of the your POP server.

Assuming your POP server is called cuckoo, add an entry to your MH
profile for 'inc' like so:
inc: -noaudit -norpop -noapop -host cuckoo
Add the following to ~/.netrc and ensure it is readable only by you
(e.g., chmod 600 .netrc):
machine cuckoo.domain.name login joeuser password secret
Replace the hostname, login and password with your own, of course.
The hostname probably has to be fully qualified (i.e., include the
full domain name). This example assumes that you can send mail by
other means (e.g., with SMTP).
