'''POP3''': acronymic for '''P'''ost '''O'''ffice '''P'''rotocol (version '''3'''). This is one of the major protocols used by end users to retrieve their mail from their mailserver; as opposed to the protocol used to deliver mail to that server from the sender.

'''POP3''' is an older and very stable protocol known for good performance in less than ideal network conditions, but is not very flexible. Unlike [[IMAP]], it is designed purely for retrieving mail, not for organizing or otherwise maintaining it.

The bsdwiki.net maintainers use and recommend [[dovecot]] for both a IMAP and [[POP3]] server needs.
