This message is to announce poppy-1.0, a simple perl script that I have
released to interact with a POP3 mail account.

This program will only download the headers to each mail message from
your POP3 server and allow you to either view, save, or delete these
message seperately.  You can also display a given number of lines of any
message.

This program is meant to offload most of the work onto the POP3 server. 
Its main use is that you can view the headers to your email from the
POP3 server without downloading the whole set (as most POP3 mail
programs do) and then just view the interesting ones.  This is great
when you have large size emails on your POP3 server with a slow link to
your local computer.

A second use is for viewing mail from multiple locations.  After viewing
your mail from one location (work) you can delete all unneeded emails
before storing it at another location (home), saving a lot of time in
downloading.

You can download this program from the following sites:

ftp://tsx-11.mit.edu/pub/linux/sources/usr.bin/poppy-1.0.tar.gz
