.POP3 Daemon , i.e. Server.This tcllib module provides three packages which allow the construction of pop3 email servers.AMG: I wrote a simple pop3 daemon for use with gmail pop3 import. It can be used for importing mbox, maildir, or any other email format into gmail. I'm sure it can also be adapted for other purposes.Since this code only supports one user, and since pop3 disallows concurrent connections to a single maildrop, my code only accepts one connection at a time. Authentication is done through USER/PASS. I guess I could have gotten clever and implemented APOP, but I didn't. :^) UIDL is implemented only because gmail requires it; it uses sha1c.tcl from tcllib for a tremendous performance boost. The entire mailbox is stored in a list, and you have to customize the script to configure where the actual email is read from. DELE deletes from the in-memory mailbox, but restarting the program causes all emails to be restored. Everything's logged to stdout, so you can see the progress of gmail importing. Most importantly, you can tell when it's done, because that's when it's time to stop running the server to plug the gaping security hole. :^)Source code:

The order of delete commands appears to be slightly randomized. 200 mails are read at a time before disconnecting. Each time it connects, it may use a different IP address. gmail uses UIDL to avoid redownloading emails it already has.There is one email in my archive that gmail refused to import. It's from MS, in fact.The message "oops" from miguel sofer ([email protected]) contained a virus or a suspicious attachment. It was therefore not fetched from your account google@myhostname and has been left on the server.The attachment was tcl8.3.4-flow2.tar.gz. It seems gmail scanned it and determined that it had a few bugs. :^)
