Category: Internet - Email Clients(?)

Synopsis: FreePOPs is an extensible mail proxy. Its primary use is to allow checking and downloading of e-mail from webmails from any conventional POP3 client program, avoiding the need to use a Web browser.

FreePOPs is a very useful way of dealing with a webmail as though it were a regular POP3 mailbox. Most webmail providers require you to use a web browser to read and collect your mail. This process can be slow and any mail software client coupled with FreePOPs can do this in the background effectively; for this purpose, FreePOPs can be combined with programs such as PopTray, getmail or Mozilla Thunderbird, Opera, etc. to allow scheduled checking of both POP3 mailboxes and webmails in the background.

Writes settings to: Application folder(?)

How to extract: Download the EXE or ZIP package and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch FREEPOPSD.EXE. (To save space on disc, I deleted GMAIL.LUA and any other LUA files for webmails I do not use.)
