Title: Retreiving mail from 2 pop accounts
Post by: Joe MacKay on January 31, 2003, 03:08:08 AM

I have a client who wants to retrieve his e-mail from two different pop accounts. One on a dialup account and one from a broadband provider, combine them into one mailbox, and then use Webmail to view them while he is on the road. My question is: Is it possible to setup SME-Server to retreive the mail from TWO outside pop accounts?

Joe

PS: He will be running SME-Server 5.5

Hi,

Try to have a look at sme.swerts-knudsen.dk under "How to install fetchmail". This is exactly what you want to do. I have tested this on 5.5 and now also under 5.6.

Rgds,

Hi Joe,

I use Vincent Filali's multiple pop add-in. Search the forums for vincent and you should find links to it.

Thanks one and all for the help I think that I now have enough to get this one going (unless the spec changes again).
