I think it would be nice if email accounts here were pop accessable. I surf through a tmobile sidekick 2, and believe me, its impossible to check my email through it. Pop would let my sk mail client access it. It might be worth looking at and might bring more people in
peace

They are pop accessible, you just have to setup your MX record and make sure that it doesn’t have a cname. This code is to setup outlook express to send and receive pop3 email.
If you use this it will make changes to your registry, do not make changes unless you backed up the registry. Any changes to the registry may render your computer "useless" blah, blah, blah... all warnings said. (no instructions on how to run this, if you don't know how. I ain't gonna tell) use with caution and edit to fit.

"SMTP Prompt for Password"=dword:00000000

Exchange your-email@yourdomain.astahost.com for the correct email address and the same for the MX record mail.yourdomain.astahost.com.

If you have your MX record setup correctly you can access pop3 to receive and use the smtp to send email. You can set the same thing up manually on any email program.

Hope this helps. 
