Hi,

> [coming out of several POP3 users]

I am carrying Carl Harris' "popclient" from computer to computer
since the 1990s. It can even do POP2 if you find a server that
cooperates. Occasionally i have to adapt it to the newest internet
habits and threats. But that's only minor polishing.

Its lack of modern encryption facilities can be compensated by
the use of stunnel(8).

I now learned that popclient is also the ancestor of fetchmail

Have a nice day :)
