(9814) POP3 and IMAP Clients, SMTP mail?

Post by User » Thu Aug 26, 2004 9:26 am

Hi,

Just want to see if there is a product that acts like a pop3 client on a
OpenVms Alpha system.
(ok "tcpip services" offers a pop server but what I need on my openvms is a
pop client to fetch messages on a remote server)

I saw that such product like "fetchmail" is running over HP unix but I didn't
see anything about Openvms ?

Mozilla offers this capability, and there are various SMTP mail
client ports either listed in the OpenVMS FAQ or discussed in
the newsgroups. PINE is an obvious example.

OpenVMS has full SMTP servers capabilities with TCP/IP Services,
and thus the local network can potentially be configured to use
MX or SMTP, and the local native MAIL client.
