I believe I better understand your situation now.
It's always good to give the whole story first.
You said earlier:

...so we only have back up the email on the user pc only if we check option to keep copy message on server, then on the main mail server (hosting) but it's very very limited quota

I assume you have a local server of some description, it's easy to configure your email client to save email data on that server, so therefore no problems having email data scattered on different workstations. Is that viable for you ?

I did just that for many many years and it works fine.

Your questions re accessing local webmail are probably related to how you have www resolution configured, but lets just deal with the initial matter first.

yup .. it's working .. but it's run under windows , i try to using mdaemon free edition ..

but .. i want to build mail server under linux .. coz mdaemon + windows server need a license ... :( i need to use an opensource like linux ..

so i wanna try to sme server 7.4 , i hope that i can use and configure it .. coz i'm really really newbie on linux, like a blind man .. on linux :)

I'm not referring to using a local mail server.
I'm saying you can continue to download mail using POP and simply change the location that your email client saves data to eg Outlook Express, Windows Mail, Thunderbird.
That way you can have as much data (ie email files) saved locally (on an ibay on the server) as you wish to have without limits or restrictions.

I do not see the need for this, when you say that you only want the server to function during certain hours of the day. You are adding a layer of complexity that does not gain anything.
Just keep using POP download, but change where the email client data is saved.

If you really want to then read on.
You are indeed blind, as I have already answered in my earlier post the steps to follow to use fetchmail. Please read it again.

Regarding the question of webmailso how can i login to my webmail at sme server ?
https://myserver/server-manager
config  >> E-mail > Change e-mail access settings > SMTP authentication  Allow SSMTP (secure
ok
Program offered an excellent demand for the  withdrawal of your mailyum --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-fetchmail
server-manager >Mailbox Retrieval
Thanks all for helping
