Folks:

I'm attempting to use popa3d to handle POP3 on my box for my home
network. The authors assume you will be running an init.d system, but
obviously, I'm running systemd. Does anyone know how to set this up
with systemd so it will run without simply terminating. I've set up a
system user called "popa3d" to satisfy a getpwnam() error generated by
systemd, and I have a service file as follows:

[Unit]
Description=POP3 Daemon
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/popa3d -D
User=root
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Any help would be appreciated.

Paul
