SGI machine under IRIX. Task seems to simple but it isn't. Can't find

Doesn't take much to find it:
Qualcomm QPopper.

Personally I'd try to avoid qpopper, as it has a long history of
security holes leading to root exploits. Better (IMO) alternatives:
popa3d - ftp://ftp.dataforce.net/pub/solar/
cucipop - ftp://ftp.fdt.net/pub/unix/packages/cucipop/
cyrus - http://andrew2.andrew.cmu.edu/cyrus/
Not sure whether any of them compiles on IRIX though.
