Hi Kaushik and Suresh,
I am sure "mail forwarding" at pop3 is premium (chargeable).
not so sure about pop3 being chargeable. guess it would be free.
the general logic being:
1. in mail fwding, you don't get hits on the site. sites don't like
that.
2. in pop3 you do get hits on the site and eyeballs count increases.
with the speed of web based downloading in pop3, it takes eternity, so
that is good for the site. Sites want that.
regards.
