Fetchmail is a full-featured IMAP/POP2/POP3/APOP/KPOP/ETRN/ODMR client with
|
|
easy configuration, daemon mode, forwarding via SMTP or local MDA, and
|
|
superior reply handling. It is used to handle intermittent email connections
|
|
by acting as a coupling that seamlessly batch forwards fetched mail from your
|
|
mail server to your local delivery system, allowing you to read it with your
|
|
favourite mail user agent. Fetchmail also includes useful spam filtering and
|
|
multi-user functions.
|
|
|
|
A typical use of fetchmail is to connect to your ISP's POP3 server,
|
|
downloading your mail into the INBOX on your local computer. You may then
|
|
read the mail, offline if you want, using pine, mutt, or any standard mail
|
|
user agent.
