Most e-mail clients are configured differently. However, all Internet clients need to know the
following information:
POP3/IMAP4 Server: The DNS hostname or IP address of the Internet Agent.
Login Name: The user's GroupWise user ID. For POP3 clients, there are several user ID login
options you can use to control how the Internet Agent handles the user's messages. For
example, you can limit how many messages are downloaded each session. For more
information, see
Password: The user's existing GroupWise mailbox password. POP3/IMAP4 services requires
users to have passwords assigned to their mailboxes.
User ID Login Options
With POP3 clients, users can add the options listed in the table below to the login name (GroupWise
user ID) to control management of their mailbox messages. If used, these options override the POP3
settings assigned through the user's class of service (see
Service," on page
Login options are appended to the user ID name with a colon character (:) between the user ID name
and the switches:
Syntax: user_ID:switch
Example:
You can combine options by stringing them together after the user ID and the colon without any
spaces between the options:
Syntax: user_ID:switch1switch2
Example:
The syntax for the user ID options is not case sensitive. Login options are not required. If you do not
want to include any login options, just enter the user ID name in the text box, or following the USER
command if you are using a Telnet application as your POP3 client.

Explanation
multiple POP3 clients access the same GroupWise
mailbox, each client must use a different view number in
order to see a fresh mailbox.
For example, if two POP3 clients access a mailbox and the
first client downloads the unread messages, the second
client cannot download the messages unless it is using a
different view number than the first client.
If this option is not used, the default value is 1.
The d option deletes the messages from the GroupWise
mailbox after they have been downloaded to the POP3
client.
