fetchmail doesn't require that either (I'm not sure if you were implying
that it did, or not). And it can also be configured to use an
ssh-tunnel for the pop-retrieval.
I'm not saying using pop_perl5 is bad or that it shouldn't be used (in
favour of fetchmail), it's good to have choice. :-) Just wanted to
clarify that the above is possible with fetchmail too. I'd be happy to
share my .fetchmailrc entries for that if anyone is interested in it,
mail me privately for that as it's a bit off-topic for this list.

Mikko
