If the foreign server whose mail you want to fetch only operates a POP3 service, surely an IMAP fetch won't work?

Also, configuring someone else's server to forward mails to FM surely means that the FM SMTP server receiving those mails will (possibly) reject them according to various criteria? Whereas I would have expected that an FM fetch of whatever is in a POP3 (or IMAP) mailbox elsewhere would grab everything regardless of its headers & content.
