I need my POP client to connect to a port other than the defualt well known port (110 for POP3 or 109 for POP2).
Distinct will automatically connect to the well known port of 110. If you are connecting through a firewall this may need to be changed. You can do this by editing the services file. This file is found under the Windows directory in Windows 95 and 98 and under system32/drivers/etc located under the WindowsNT directory in NT 4.0.

Add the following entry:

pop-3 1700/tcp
where: 1700 is the port number you want to connect to. Replace this with your actual port number. Note that Distinct does not read the pop3 entry but just pop-3.
