(FWIW, in case you can't get things running the way you want, *this*
problem should be rather trivial to solve; even if you cannot configure
solid-pop3d to listen on 127.0.0.1:110 instead of 0.0.0.0:110, the host
firewall ("iptables" in current Linux) can make short work of external
connection attempts.)
