Hello,

        I have a dial-in connection to a BSD machine on which I am using
Slirp to emulate PPP.  The BSD machine is not running a POP server but I
want to use my PC to retrieve my mail from the BSD machine.  Are there any
user-level POP programs I can run such that I can receive my mail while I am
logged in and then kill this program before I log out?  Thanks for your time.
