title: retrieve email using PHP and pop3 - what is your technique?
body: <p>I can see some options available:</p>
  
  <p>1) Use PEAR's POP3 class --> tried it, having some weird weird issues like FF choking to death on their sample code!!!</p>
  
  <p>2) Use PHPClasses (<a href="http://www.phpclasses.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>) --> seems to be the viable option at the time, still working on it</p>
  
  <p>3) Write my own or use one of the snippets available</p>
  
  <p>The target is currently Gmail, but I would like this to work on my ISP mail too (not necessarily same code of course).</p>
  
  <p>What do you use? Pointers to working snippets would be much appreciated. </p>
