When trying to access a user's set of mailboxes from multiple machines --
eg, laptop and desktop -- just using operating system file sharing can be
a performance problem.
So I am looking for some software that will use POP to pull down my mail
from various network accounts, and then will make the mail available via IMAP.
That is, the "client" side of the server will go out and get new mail and
incorporate it into its storage environment. The server side of the
server will allow other clients to access the store via IMAP.
Does anyone know of such a WIN2K server?
I don't usually like 'advertising' on these mailing lists, but you may want
to look at our VPOP3 Enterprise software
(www.pscs.co.uk/products/vpop3/index.html). It sounds like it will do just
what you want. It'll download mail from as many POP3 accounts as you want
(over the LAN or dial-up connection) and then you can put them into one
local merged POP3 or IMAP4 account.
There's a 30 day, 25 user trial version available, so you can see if it
does what you need.
