[imp] Leaving mail on host POP server

[Messier, Jean-Francois]

What I'm looking at doing with IMP, is setup a central point where I can web
to, and view the email I have on all kinds of POP servers, remotely. My
network connection at work does not allow POP3 connections, http only. This
way, I can view my own email, without breaking the firewall. However, once
I'm back at home, I want to ultimately retrieve the same email via POP3
again, but using my email software under Windows.

Assumed that you're not talking about the fetchmail feature: IMP doesn't
(and can't) fetch any emails from the server, in the meaning that it keeps
them locally. It only displays messages from the server.
