Tivo POP3 Client (TPOP)

I've done it... I've just finished writing an email client for the Tivo (POP3 Only)., called TPOP. The attached file has a bogus .zip at the end, it's just a .tar.gz. Install this in a writiable area on your hard drive (it keeps track of state so that you can run it alongside a full-featured email client). run it from /etc/rc.sysinit by adding "/var/hack/bin/tpopd.tcl" (no ampersand needed) (or wherever you put it) run "tpopd.tcl -h" to give you a list of options. There is a .conf file for storing user and password, how often to check messages, whether or not to delete them from the server, etc. Messages are stored in the Tivo Messages area. Oh, yeah, this is released under the GPL and all that. I hope I didn't forget anything. Enjoy....
