Switch off unwanted services
Is it possible to switch off services in James that you don't want. e.g.
Can I run James with, say, NNTP disabled ?
Thanks,

I just want to confirm that there is a way to disable individual services.
It involves rather minor changes to 3 conf files, but I only vaguely
remember how. Now that we've got the FAQ page, we can put those steps to
disable POP, SMTP, and/or NNTP up there once a knowing contributor assembles
the instructions.

I asked a similar question a while ago, when I wanted to disable POP3. As
far as I can tell, the answer is, "no, you can't."
However, what I did was bind the POP3 service to address 127.0.0.1. It
doesn't prevent it from loading into memory, but it does prevent access to
it from the network. BTW - I did the same thing with "remotemanager."
