    Wow! Awesome!

    It could use better documentation on how to set up various email clients. Once I found the information for Thunderbird, it was easy to setup. -1 for making me search. :P

    Does what it says. However, the setup is much more complicated then it has to be. Downloads take forever. I could never download the .pdl file.

    Reviewing 0.0.95 (Oct 28, 2005)

    It need some improvements:
    - Make FreePOPs Start automatically after the installations. (so no need to add manually to AutoStart)
    - Add mailcity, kgb.hu or primposta.
    - Add autoupdate the lua
    - and others improvements.

    Then release the Final version 1.0. because some people still afraid of using betas software :(
