I am looking for an email service provider which offers pop3 to

were bought by Bendigo telco I would also like this to be a constant
email address that does not change every time I need to change ISP's.
Privacy is also something of an issue and there seems to be some
question on this issue with Gmail which I believe does allow the use
of
pop3.
Why do you want to use POP3? You can use Fetchmail and several other
mail
copying systems with IMAP.
Now I only use email when I have to, I do not regard it as a reliable
method of communication, but from the little I know about pop3 and
imap.........On general principle I do not like to store my own material
on a system outside of my control. I also ONLY use email from a single
system and have absolutely NO DESIRE for ANY kind of remote access of
email. I still have email I received from 10 years ago, it makes
interesting reading on what I was up to then.
Man thanks for the reply,
Lindsay
