You only need one of about a million different e-mail clients to talk pop3 to direct to your exchange server.

The best example for you is probably to use "fetchmail" which will get your e-mail via pop3 and then deliver it using smtp so that any standard hpux mail client can receive it.

You can get "fetchmail" from

Hi,

Marks solution is the way to go. An alternative is using ELM if it is not on regular basis. It is allready installed and you can use it as an POP3 client.
Check man elm for more info or get back to us.
