Net-Tamer will do TELNET and POP3, but it will not do IMAP. It saves
messages to a concatenated file.
PC-PINE for DOS will do IMAP but not POP3 or TELNET. PC-PINE also saves
messages to a concatenated text file. I have been told that the later
Winbloze version will do POP3 as well as IMAP.

P.S. You can use a POP3 client to connect with an IMAP server, but
in this case, the IMAP server would provide you with only the same
features as a POP3 server.
