Yes, I am aware that POP3 doesn't have anything to do with sending 
mail.  The more I think about this, it is a silly request.  I can basically 
send mail out as anybody using Eudora since there is no authentication when 
sending out mail.  Anyone could pretty much use any email address to send 
spam from; why are they worried about the user "x" account being used for 
spamming purposes...?
