README for popclient 3.0
popclient is a full-featured, robust, well-documented POP2, POP3, APOP,
and IMAP client originally developed by Carl Harris <ceharris@mal.com> and
now maintained by Eric S. Raymond <esr@thyrsus.com>.
You can find the latest version of popclient from Eric's home page
http://www.ccil.org/~esr
Features of POP include:
* POP2, POP3, APOP and IMAP support with auto-probing for a server
on the host if no protocol is specified.
* Easy configuration via command line or free-format .poprc file.
* Daemon mode -- popmail can be run in background to poll
one or more hosts at a specified interval.
* Delivery via either file-append with mandatory locking or an
MDA you specify, or via SMTP to the client machine's port 25.
* From:, To:, Cc:, and Reply-To: headers are rewritten so that
usernames relative to the popclient host become fully-qualified
Internet addresses. This enables replies to work correctly.
There is a man page at popclient.man. A sample rc file is at sample.poprc.
For a release history, see the file NEWS.
