I use mpop and msmtp. I tried to set up fetchmail many years ago. One deficiency is that it didn't allow downloading email to a file (mbox). I used getmail, which is a Python script, many years ago after giving up on fetchmail. I believe hplip, used for some HP printers including multifunction, depends on Python 2.7, something that needs to be corrected/updated. Or is that already done? Tom
