A. You need to use simple program called fetchmail. It is an utility which retrieves email from remote mailservers and delivers it to the local mail server or MTA. The fetchmail utility supports following common mail-retrieval protocols:
POP3
IMAP4
POP2 etc
You need to create a .fetchmailrc file in your home directory i.e. /home/you/.fetchmailrc and setup permission to 644.
