I've got plenty open, but it doesn't seem to be working the way I 
expect it to (of course, maybe my expectations are out of line :)

On tater:

	pll at tater:~$ ssh taz -R 8110:199.174.114.33:110
	# pll at taz:/home/pll[1001]
	$ 
	
On tater in another xterm:

	pll at tater:~$ fetchmail -vc lanminds.com --port 8110 --protocol pop3
	Enter password for pll at lanminds.com: 
	fetchmail: 5.9.11 querying lanminds.com (protocol POP3) at Wed Sep 25 15:29:44 2002: poll started
	fetchmail: couldn't find canonical DNS name of lanminds.com
	fetchmail: 5.9.11 querying lanminds.com (protocol POP3) at Wed Sep 25 15:30:24 2002: poll completed
	fetchmail: normal termination, status 11

	pll at tater:~$ fetchmail -vc 199.174.114.33 --port 8110 --protocol pop3
	Enter password for pll at 199.174.114.33: 
	fetchmail: 5.9.11 querying 199.174.114.33 (protocol POP3) at Wed Sep 25 15:31:28 2002: poll started
	POP3 connection to 199.174.114.33 failed: No route to host
	fetchmail: 5.9.11 querying 199.174.114.33 (protocol POP3) at Wed Sep 25 15:31:31 2002: poll completed
	fetchmail: normal termination, status 2
	pll at tater:~$ 

So, I seem to be missing something :)

Ahh, there's plenty of room if you use compression :)

So be it!
