Looking for a pop3 collection tool

[James]

As above. I am looking for a free pop3 mail retiever that can have up to 15 accounts. There are 2 programs that I use which are perfect but only allow 5 accounts for free and then need $300odd for more licences, these are 602 Lan Suite and Proxy +.

The reason being is we host a mail server in the USA and would like a server locally on an ADSL line that will just take care of the retrieval process and ilimiante the waiting period while downloading and sending mail and they are not willing to spend more on software so opensource/freeware is a must.

Thans in advance

fetchmail is THE standard for this kind os setup. Although I don't think they have a windows version?

Try these http://www.google.com/search?hs=REy...US:unofficial&q=fetchmail+windows&btnG=Search

not sure how linux-savvy you are, but there are tools available on linux to download mail from pop3 accounts.

you can use qmail/maildir/vpopmail/CourierIMAP to manage the local mail server. fetchmail can retrieve mail from a pop3 server and inject it to your maildir. the access the mail using imap/pop3 or, if you want webmail, horde.

alternatively, gmail can do the same.
