Dear Varun, there is little need to grouch and ask the same questions over and over again. You got already some reasonable explanations..otherwise explain us what you are trying to do. You're usecase are somewhat weird. -aj

There arent. Neither commercial nor free. Dont think pop3 is interesting anyway. I think I saw some IMAP code but I dont know where. Just feed your search engine of choice and be prepared to find only fragments. Sure it would be interesting to have an IMAP server just like the SMTP server and let them play together. From what I know, nobody had the time yet. If you find something interesting, please let me know :)

For Linux (almost surely *nix in general), there is "imap": "IMAP4, POP2 and POP3 mail server." You can interface Zope with this server via Python's "poplib" and "imaplib". You will need to do some work yourself... -- Dieter

I dont think this is the way round he wants ;) At least there would be ready to use webmail products which are available for zope :-) As I said, zope as imap server would indeed be interesting :-) Its only a fairly bit of work since the protocol is a bit weird and the usual clients even more.

You need to tell us more about what you are trying to do for us to be able to help you much. However: - - - POP3 is a mature, standard protocol, so anything you write which reads from one POP3 mail server should read from another, although there are some quirky authentication schemes that can crop up to confuse matters. - - You can download a free POP3 server for Windows (A whole mail server with SMTP, POP3 and IMAP support, in fact, but that was not what you asked!) from: - http://www.pmail.com/ (look for Mercury/32). ...and there are any number of free and open-source mail servers for Un*ces (Mercury/32 is free, but sadly not open source). For example, XMail has SMTP and POP3 (but not IMAP), is open source and runs on Windows and Linux etc.: - http://www.xmailserver.org/ - - FWIW, Mercury/32 (can't speak for Xmail) stores mails as discrete files in a standard folder, so if you wish you can work with the file system rather than the POP3 protocol. I've set up Plone to access the queue, log and mailbox folders in a Mercury instance for administrative purposes, for example. - - If you want to interface with the mail server configuration (as opposed to mail messages), Xmail may be a better bet - it stores it's configuration in tab delimited ASCII files, which should be a snap to manipulate in Python.
