email/pop/server/cell emulators

Hope this isn't too irrelavent... Maybe should be in offtopic

Yahoo and Hotmail Webservices now require you pay for POP access... If you have an email client configured with an account you can access your email from a client.

I was just trying to use this for when I click Send To--> Email in Microsoft Word, I was wanting to have the body of my word document show up in yahoo mail in a web browser... Without paying for Pop3 Access or having fun configuring my own local mail server. Are their programs that emulate/mimic one?

Any idea's

On another topic has anyone played with the AS400/mainframe emulation?

Gmail offers pop3 access (free).

A short google search on the subject brings up 100's of lesser-name services that do as well.

As far as having the word document show up in a web browser...? Not quite following you there, were you trying to attach a word document, or paste the contents into an e-mail and have it remain formatted (remember 30+% of the world views e-mail in plain text).

There are a couple programs on sourceforge.net to allow you to get yahoo email through a mail client - yahoopops for example: http://sourceforge.net/projects/yahoopops

I think this program can do it too... http://sourceforge.net/projects/hotwayd

This'd probably have gone better in TechTalk or Talk of the Town
