I'm not, which is something POP was never intended on doing. (However, in this case, I am my own ISP, since I have a full-time connection with my own mailserver and domain.) I'm using fetchmail + pop to fetch my already delivered email so that I can also retrieve email securely when on business trips. For single users, this works great. > Tell me, is your mail compliant with the non-disclosure of "Bcc:" > recipients requirement?

It sure is, because it's the responsibility of the mail sending program to handle this. Fetchmail is a mail retrieval program, so it's only job is to fetch the mail that is already delivered to me. > PS: I'm surprised you didn't mention the "finger" or the "PPP > linkup script" methods. Finger is an abomination, and PPP linkup scripts are really only useful for certain kinds of accounts. When I'm away on business, why dialin when I have a perfectly good internet connection that doesn't use PPP?
