I've never used fsockopen(). Is it messy? Is there anything I should know? Do I use the same POP address and port with fsockopen() that e-mail clients use to check? Thanks!

Thanks for the input. I have 1 1/2 months to complete the project. I want it to be well put together and efficient. I've actually never worked with a CMS before. I will look into the suggested CMS.
