2 solutions to your problem:

1) install the make RPM off the RedHat cd...
2) install the IMAP rpm off the "  "    "

The IMAP server has POP functionality, and has other cool features too.  I
use it, I like it.  No compile necessary. 


But if you want to compile qpopper, youll need to install the make utility
off the CD.  you don't have it installed.  It's a seperate RPM from the
compiler et al.
