POP3Download Description
POP3Download provides a small Perl alternative to Fetchmail. POP3Download provides a small Perl alternative to Fetchmail.POP3Download is a simple Perl script which downloads and delivers email from a POP3 server to a local MTA or MDA. It was developed in order to work around problems in Fetchmail while still providing the same or similar functionality.pop3download is my initial work on a drop-in replacement for fetchmail, written in perl. it is designed to be a much more flexible and easy to edit app than the original fetchmail program as well as get around some design limitations and bugs.there is limited support for fetchmail config files. $HOME/.fetchmailrc is parsed for the following options:set daemon INTEGERpoll SERVERuser USERpass PASSproto PROTOmda MDAsoon to be implemented options:fetchallkeepforcecrwithout any arguments the config file is parsed and servers are polled.if -h or --help is the first argument, some basic help options are displayed. support for polling a single server on the command-line is available and will eventually be extended to support more fetchmail-like command line args.currently pop3download only supports the pop3 protocol (as the name suggests) but adding support for IMAP and other protocols should be fairly trivial.What's New in This Release:· This release fixes a bug in Net::IMAP::Simple::list() where some messages had no size and no mail was retrieved. What's New in This Release: · Added hack to support REFERRAL for mailboxes in Net::IMAP::Simple. · Support IMAPS with Net::IMAP::Simple::SSL. · Support 'service' fetchmail keyword · New 'mailbox' keyword for specifying IMAP mailbox to select for polling · Some code clean-up
