POP3 disabled in dovecodefault installt?

hi,
I am trying to use my B2 as a mail server for pop3 clients. I have got the IMAP part working, besides the fact that I must use SSL (without a certificate) since Oultllook Express doen't support the secure password algoritm used by dovecot. POP3 is however impossible to use from clients.
Looking through the /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf file i see that IMAP and IMAPS are the only activated protocols. Adding POP3 and POP3S generate an error while restarting dovecot. (missing pop3 folder)

Can anybody give me a hint on how to configure dovecot for pop3?

thanks!

Per default, only the package dovecot-imapd is installed; Probably what is needed is installment of dovecot-pop3d.
