Yes I found that one, but they do sort of say you can use SDPS - which I
just couldn't get to
work properly at all :/

Although you apparently don't get multiple pop addresses with demon, you
can sort of emulate
it, this is a bit of a fudge but it seems to work - unless you can point
out the glaring error :)


poll pop3.demon.nl protocol POP3
localdomains <demon-domain-name>
user gordon+<demon-host-name> is gordon
password **********
fetchall

poll pop3.demon.nl protocol POP3
localdomains <demon-domain-name>
user andy+<demon-host-name> is andy
password ********
fetchall

poll pop3.demon.nl protocol POP3
localdomains <demon-domain-name>
user <demon-host-name> is carp
password *************
fetchall

my real worry is what happens if a message comes in between the 2nd and
last runs... would mail destined for andy actually go to the carp account?
