[comp.mail.sendmail] POP Protocol

Hello,

Would anyone know which of the many mail packages out there
implement the Post Office Protocol, POP?  I'm making a study
here of which mail software we should use for our UNIX
workstation environment.  I've already looked into the 'mh'
package, which at this point is the only one I've found which uses
POP.  I'd appreciate any ideas, either via e-mail or postings.

Thanx,

This is easily one of the most frequently asked questions on these
groups.  You should rummage through the comp.archives archives
(kept on cs.toronto.edu) for some recent announcements.

I'd like to see a newsgroup at some point to cover IMAP, POP, and
related protocols.
