pop3d name inconsistency

Hello everyone,

Mailutils 0.1

The pop3 daemon seems to be a bit inconsistent in what it thinks it's name is.

In the process table, it lists itself as lt-pop3d. The usage note from the --help indicates
Usage: lt-pop3d ...

The service name that appears in the logs appears to be "gnu-pop3d".

The binary is compiled under the name "pop3d". I didn't 'make install' (I only wanted the pop daemon) so it's possible that the file is installed as lt-pop3d, but it didn't appear to be so in browsing the makefile. Perhaps someone can correct me.

In any case, should the process name match the binary name? Also, should the entry in the log also match the binary name?

Thank you.

Regards,
Rich
