That's basically just a named set of somehow related messages. 'mailboxes' are usually accessed by connecting to some server implementing a suitable protocol (for 'boxes', that would be IMAP). fetchmail is a C implementation of an IMAP (and POP and ...) client but calling that 'simple' would be quite of an understatement.

Occasionally they wreck their cars in the process. What you probably want is either: (1) The way to open a UNIX *local* mailbox, with proper locking, for a mail client to use, or (2) The way to open an IMAP or POP3 connection to a mail server and read messages on the connection. |
