This is a little script to fetch emails from http://webmailer.t-online.de . I wrote it, because T-Online charges extra money if you want POP3 access from outside their own dialup networks.
Fortunately the webmailer allows for downloading of selected emails, and sends the mails to be downloades in the traditional mbox format. This makes it easy to re-gain the original emails, including all headers, and pass them on via smtp or local delivery on Unix systems.
The name is a merger of the words POP3 and T-Online, and Popeline, the German word for poplin, because T-Online leaves you out in the rain when you want to change the access provider, but keep the email address.
