Hi Thomas,

I don't know of any standard package providing these functions. However, you may use your own JAVA code to enhance the database functions. I am pretty sure there are many good examples out there on the net on how to retrieve mail of a POP3 account with JAVA.

Remember: Getting mails of a POP3 account is nothing more than just plain texting to a certain (POP3) port on the mailserver. Test it yourself and do a:

telnet mailserver.wherever.org pop3
