FreePOPs Description

Access to the most varied resources through the POP3 protocol FreePOPs is a POP3 daemon plus a LUA interpreter and some extra libraries for HTTP and HTML parsing. Its main purpose is translating local POP3 requests to remote HTTP actions on the supported web-mails, but it is really more flexible. For example there is a plugin to read news from a website as if they were mails in a mailbox. You can easily extend FreePOPs on the fly, without even restarting it. You can add a plugin or modify an existing one simply changing the script file since the plugins are written in LUA and are interpreted on the fly.FreePOPs can be used as an aggregator for RSS feeds, but it could also be used to download mail from the most famous webmails, and much more. This way it is possible to get all your messages in your favorite email client. Here are some key features of "FreePOPs": · RFC compliant POP3 server (not full featured but still compliant). · Portable (written in C and LUA that is written in C, so everything is written in the world's most portable language). · Small (in terms of resources usage) and reasonably fast. · Extremely extensible on the fly using a simple and powerful language. · Pretty documented. · Released under the GNU/GPL license (this means FreePOPs is Free Software).
