i've been sitting here for hours feeling really stupid.
i can't get my mail from my isp's pop3 server.
(they don't have imapd ...)

i have v3.95 / fbsd.  where's the "getPOP3mail" option?

Use a POP client (I use popclient on linux), and make it retrive your mail
box for you. My popclient call is thus:

#!/bin/sh
popclient -3 -v -uUSENAME -pPASSWORD -c 194.145.1.31 >> /var/spool/mail/root
