Description:

This plugin creates a POP3 server which serves the mail from a Mozilla Thunderbird style mbox file. It could be useful if you are moving old mail from Thunderbird to a program that does not support importing mbox files - you could point the program to freepops and download all your old mail. This plugin is barely tested and many things are unimplemented, so good luck. The mbox file to read mail from is specified by the 'file' argument. You should log in with the username 'start@mbox.xx', where start is the mail number to start at. The password should be the number of mails to read. I added these start and limit parameters because I was using a really huge mbox file and it was taking too long to load the whole thing, so I imported my mail in batches.

Supported parameter:

Name:: file
Description:: path to mbox file
