Accessing a pop3 mailbox
What is a good way to access a pop3 mailbox? I know I could use the imap functions, but because they require the c-client library, my isp wants to charge me to enable them. Is there another way to do it?
You could use the php socket functionallity. Pop3 uses tcp port 110. And it uses a quite simple clear text protocol. But you'll probably need to write quite a bit of code. There's a possiblity that you find a good (and free) class to use, but I'm sorry to say that I don't know of any (haven't looked though).
