Is sendmail default open POP3 (sendmail 8.12.10) ??

I used tools to check my machine and find POP3 opened.
(But no port 110 open when using netstat -na command)

If yes, how to disable it ??

Thanks a lot !!!

Sendmail doesn't contain pop3 functionality - it's a SMTP server.
For pop3, you need to run some pop3 server implementation to which
sendmail delivers received messages.

You should find pop/imap server and stop it. For example it can be imap2000,
courier-imap, cyrus-imap, e.t.c.
