Who uses pop3 anymore?

But yeah most providers unless totally encrypted don’t.

I was using for various things up until not that long ago. I had a few accounts that was the only way to get mail unless you paid more.

Those are gone, however, so the point is moot.

Interment yahoo used to allow pop for free. Yah I guess some scanners/copiers have to pop before smtp. I setup some free smtp service instead a few years ago. Just ran across it again, fucking emailed me for my own scanner. “Verify” ok did forgot about that. Next day MFC started sending me an activity report at 8pm nightly. lulz

It’s a simple way to have one email account collect mail from another, and it can be encrypted. I bet most people are using it for that.

But the encrypted that collects from pop 3 isn’t encrypted.

So you have a collection point that’s encrypted, but all feeds are not?

Fucking boomer tier shit bro.

There must have been only a small number of users using this feature. Otherwise, this would be a dumb move by Google. This feature lets users use their Gmail account as their mail account that gathers all of their mail together.

The feature I hope they don’t drop is mail forwarding. I still have a Gmail account that I used for years. I can never close it because there are too many people and businesses out there that will send mail to it. I need that mail forwarded to my real address so I don’t miss anything.

POP3 has been slowly fading. So yeah probably not many people even know what that is now.
