I just installed this on a recent install of 10.2.6 and got it all working, thanks to the instructions. However, there's one small thing to watch out for. xinetd is not actually running on Jaguar as shipped - at least, it wasn't running on mine. The easiest way to start it is to enable FTP Access in Sharing preferences (under Services). You can disable it again afterwards.

I set up IMAP in order to transfer some Outlook Express mailboxes over. Works a treat!

Or you could just run this in the Terminal:

xinetd -stayalive

I thought that xinetd should start when it is needed… Anyone on this one.
