FreePOPs is an easily extensible program, which allows access to the most varied resources through the POP3 protocol.
Mainly, it can be used to download mail from the most famous webmails, but it could also be used as an aggregator for RSS feeds and much more. This way it is possible to get all your messages in your favorite email client.

Features:

• POP3 server RFC compliant (not full featured but compliant).
  
• Portable (written in C and LUA that is written in C, so everything is written in the most portable language around the world).
  
• Small (in the sense of resources usage) and reasonably fast.
  
• Extremely extensible on the fly using a simple and power ful language.
  
• Pretty documented.
  
• Released under the GNU/GPL license (this means FreePOPs is Free Software).
  
• All 32-bit MS Windows (95/98/NT/2000/XP), FreeBSD, Linux, OpenBSD, OS X, BeOS
