We installed it on a linux box with SA, and run it as a deamon. It
supports concurrent connections, altought we haven't tested it
thoroughly (hundreds of simultaneous connections...). So, rather than
installing it locally on each machine, use a shared POP proxy.
The client sends SAproxy the user/password, that then SAproxy submits to
the remote server. It is a proxy for POP3 protocol (no support for
POP3*S*), just that before sending the message to the client it is
scanned by SA.
It is also very flexible, since the destinaton server has to be
specified as part of the login string ([EMAIL PROTECTED]
to retrieve mail with login [EMAIL PROTECTED] from pop.domain.com
server): your colleagues can use the same proxy box for retrieving mail
from other POP3 accounts as well.
