Guide Review - GoPOP 1.0 - Outlook Add-On
If you access one email account from various computers, PDAs, and your cell phone, you know the dilemma: either you leave all mail at the POP server ad infinitum, or you lack important messages when you need them.
The solution would be your own mail server, but that's overkill, right? Wrong.
With GoPOP you can turn Outlook into a small, but quite powerful POP server. GoPOP lets you access mail in any Outlook folder from anywhere using any email client.
All you need is a static IP address and a permanent connection. Let Outlook check and filter mail periodically, and access the important messages from anywhere without regrets.
Unfortunately, GoPOP can not act as an IMAP server, which would provide even more power and comfort.
