Hi All,

Over here in the UK we're still waiting for our company to get ahold
of OS X. One of our bods has been sent on a 4 day training course
and should be bringing it back with him.

However, I can't get any clarification on a couple of points and Apple
seem reluctant to return my calls.

So, can anyone answer the following.

1) I know Sendmail 8.9 is shipped with OS X. However, does it come
   with POP3 or IMAP support so that users can log in from their
   desktops and collect mail. If so what software/daemon does it use?

2) Does is come with any utilities/features to allow collection of
   e-mail from ISP's using POP3 or does it require an SMTP feed?
   If it needs an SMTP feed, has any one tried compiling software like
   fetchmail on OS X to get around this problem?

Feedback appreciated.
