POP3
Post Office Protocol version 3. The protocol most commonly used for fetching mail from a server. Some POP3 servers can also be used to send mail. The advantage of POP3 for sending over SMTP is it will work even if you come in to pick up your mail via a foreign ISP. Further it has better authentication. It is described in unusually clear language in RFC 1939.
