pop3download is a script that downloads e-mail from a POP3 or IMAP mailbox. It was originally created to work around certain fetchmail bugs, and now works as a very limited and simple alternative to it. It can keep files on the server, force CRLF line endings, poll at an interval, and pass mail through an MDA for filtering.
