Let me get this straight: any user can telnet into the box with
success; however, no user can successfully check mail. When you
telnet to port 110, your USER JSMITH command is accepted, but
your PASS ******** command is not accepted. Then the POP server
declares an invalid password, and closes your session.

Have I understood you correctly?

No change. The Qube will answer on both interfaces. So if your Qube
is www.ach.net then www.ach.net/users/jsmith (or something like
that, I'm not near my Qube at the moment) will work from the Internet
side. You can check the correct address by entering www.ach.net from
the Internet side, going to the Users page from the Public Site, then
clicking on the world next to a user. You'll be taken to their
personal page, and the URL in the browser will be the correct direct
address.

You do not need to do any specific setup to make this work; it works
by default, always, unless you directly kill it.
