It seems ppp-2.3.11 looks to some other things too. In /etc/ppp I also had 
a little script called ip-up (installed by the MiNT '98 CD I suppose). 
Whereas ppp-2.2.0 didn't use it (is that so?) ppp-2.3.11 did exexute it

May 28 19:12:00 hades060 pppd[122]: Script /etc/ppp/ip-up started (pid 127)
May 28 19:12:00 hades060 pppd[122]: Script /etc/ppp/ip-up finished (pid 127), status = 0x100

#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/runq
/usr/local/bin/pop3 -nodeliver
if [ -f $HOME/temp_mailex ]; then
#	while ps | grep runq | grep -vq grep; do
	while [ `echo -n \`ps | grep runq | grep -vc grep\`` -ge 1 -o `echo -n \`ps | grep sendmail | grep -vc grep\`` -ge 2 ]; do 
		sleep 10
	done
	rm $HOME/temp_mailex
	/usr/local/bin/pop3 -onlydeliver
	while [ `echo -n \`ps | grep sendmail | grep -vc grep\`` -ge 2 ] ; do
		sleep 5
	done
	/etc/ppp/ppp-down
fi
/usr/local/bin/pop3 -onlydeliver

I suppose I don't need that ip-up script.
