Request: YPOPs!

And from the posts on sourceforge and their forums it is now redundant since yahoo allowed direct access to pop/smtp one year ago.

Perhaps that why this piece of software hasn't been updated for a year? ;)

Tsk, tsk....
I feel like an dumass now. :P
 
Well, maybe not actually, while I was setting up yahoo in my mail client, I successfully sent an test mail.
But using pop yielded:
Code: 
The server responded: -ERR [SYS/PERM] pop not allowed for user.

In POP & Forward section I see a request to upgrade to yahoo plus.

PS: pass is same for SMTP and POP as well as username


Additionally..., is it true that free/standard pop access is available only for british yahoo?
 
I'm able to access it from sweden at least, but there are notions that they are redoing the interface for pop/smtp access. And yes, I can (and have to) activate it to be able to use it.
 
I'm sure you can easily script something with perl to do the same.
 
I did that with PHP using curl and regular expresion.
But I would really like to use POP protocol.
 
That's what I meant. All YPOPs does is run a local POP3 server and translate everything to HTTP. Perl sure has all the modules you would need to create a script that does the exact same thing.
