As far as I know, you either need to accept the mail via smtp
for your domain (if you are online 24/7--all the time) or you need
to take a look at the "Offline-Mailing" (or something like that)
HOW TO (in the mini-HOW TO's or one of the other special HOW TO's)
at a LINUX Documentation project site, for example
http://sunsite.unc.edu/LDP/HOWTO/
if you must download via POP3. Oh, if you do the POP3 method, you'll
need to have a talk with your provider about having him install a
special MX-to-account script (as per the HOW TO). You should go with
smtp if at all possible, and if you have a dedicated line, though.
