Use xfmail, a little bit old proggie, but very practical and
generic. Set it up to check your mail every x minutes, using
the mail server as a pop3 server ( xfmail wil log in, give your
password to the server, retrieve the mail, and spool it to a file
usually /var/mail/your_user_account_on_your_pc which will keep the messages)
Try it , neat little proggie
P.S. If you use current ,download the port and rebuild it using xforms-0.88.1
libraries
