If they do that even when you're coming from their own network, my
first suggestion would be to change to a better ISP.
My second suggestion is to write a perl script which logs in to their
POP server every time you connect, or run the script via cron every
fifteen minutes or so. There are good examples in the documentation
for the Net::POP3 module. Or you could use fetchmail for the same
purpose.
