Description
Fetchmail is a full-featured, robust, well-documented remote-mail retrieval and forwarding utility intended to be used
over on-demand TCP/IP links (such as SLIP or PPP connections). It
supports every remote-mail protocol now in use on the
Internet: POP2, POP3, RPOP, APOP, KPOP, all flavors of IMAP, ETRN, and
ODMR. It can even support IPv6 and IPSEC.
Fetchmail retrieves mail from remote mail servers and forwards it via
SMTP, so it can then be be read by normal mail user
agents such as mutt, elm(1) or BSD Mail. It allows all your system MTA's
filtering, forwarding, and aliasing facilities to
work just as they would on normal mail.
