hi

I have used poppeeker which i like but i do not have the control of investing the email block. i need a program to collect from pop3 accounts and then gives me the chance to hold on my pc and then delete the ones i wanted. i cound then delete the ones on the email boards so i could control the amount. i do not want to go to each site and see my email on my emails.

hoping for your help?????

I'm slightly confused by your question as all e-mail clients offer this facility, most standard e-mails are POP3. Outlook Express (free Windows XP) or the similar Mail app in Vista, Outlook (part of Office), Thunderbird (by Mozilla and free) etc - all offer these features, in the accounts and tools sections.

And all support multiple accounts, you can set the time they are left on the server, either a few days, or until deleted from the mail application.

For a sleeker, more minimalist POP3/IMAP email client, you might like to have a look at the following:

Courier (formerly Calypso): http://www.rosecitysoftware.com/Courier/
Popcorn: http://www.ultrafunk.com/products/popcorn/

The latter is portable, in that you can configure the program and carry it on a USB key to check your email from other people's PCs.

You can set up multiple email accounts with both programs.

There is also a portable version of Thunderbird available too, from Portable Apps.
