Pop3d is a POP3 server.
It accepts commands on its standard input and responds on its standard output.
It MUST invoked by
master(8)
with those descriptors attached to a remote client connection.
Pop3d reads its configuration options out of the
imapd.conf(5)
file unless specified otherwise by -C.
If the directory
log/user exists under the directory specified in the
configdirectory configuration option, then
pop3d will create protocol telemetry logs for sessions authenticating as
user. The telemetry logs will be stored in the
log/user directory with a filename of the
pop3d process-id.

means an integrity protection layer exists. Any higher SSF implies
some form of privacy protection.
