We have our email hosted with an ISP who supports POP and SMTP. We have a Domino 6 server on Linux at our office premises. How can we fetch the emails from the ISP to our LInux box ? Is there any application or package like MailDaemon (on windows) on Linux which can work as a pop gateway to Domino ?.

Look at a href=http://www.keysolutions.com/pop3fido>POP3Fido].
Comes in a Java Server Add-In task version that runs on any Domino server on
all platforms that support Java (R5 and R6).

If ISP supports SMTP, then you should use that (SMTP ETRN).
POP3 fetching is usually a very bad idea.

Hi Christopher,
Have you ever managed to set up ETRN without a Network Dialup connection?
I don’t have a modem on my Domino server and even if I did, I don’t have dialup access to any ISP.

Sorry. No, I haven’t.

fetchmail. fetchmail. fetchmail. Super easy, free and tiny. You can direct fetchmail’s queue straight to Notes SMTP. Even more, it’s easy to pass the queue through spam assassin, just about any linux virus scanner of your choice and THEN pass it to Notes, thereby avoiding the need for a lot of expensive purchases. You should still have something AV for Notes internally, mind you, but it’s nice to have something else filtering on the way in --especially if it’s a diffent program/engine.
