NAME
       popcv  -	 Migrate  passwords  from  the	/var/spool/pop/POP file to the
       mailauth database

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/bin/popcv [location]

DESCRIPTION
       The popcv utility gives system administrators the  ability  to  migrate
       passwords  from	the  /var/spool/pop/POP file to the mailauth database.
       Once the passwords are in the mailauth database, use the mailauth util‐
       ity to administer the database.

       Use  the	 location parameter to provide the full PATH for the POP file.
       If the location parameter is not specified, a  check  is	 made  in  the
       /etc/passwd  file for a pop entry. If an entry exists and if a POP file
       is found in the $HOME directory for the pop user,  then	that  file  is
       used.  If  no  file is found, the default location of /var/spool/pop is
       checked.

       When the POP file is found, the passwords are migrated to the  mailauth
       database	 as  POP passwords. If the mailauth database has not been ini‐
       tialized or converted from previous versions, the system	 administrator
       is prompted to use the mailauth utility.
