Direct your mail client to POP3 server eboks2pop.karasik.eu.org (port 8110).

best efforts to keep the server from being compromised. Still, if you use your
eboks login there it is at your own risk !!!

Try yourself
============

Prerequesites
-------------

1) For windows you'll need strawberry perl from http://strawberryperl.com/ .

2) Install this module by opening command line and typing 'cpanm git://github.com/dk/Net-Eboks'.
This gets you the latest code. If this fails, try this: 'cpan Net::Eboks', which can be older.

Download your mails as a mailbox
--------------------------------

On command line, type eboks\_dump, enter your passwords, and wait until it downloads
all into eboks.mbox. Use your favourite mail agent to read it.

Use eboks.dk as a POP3 server
-----------------------------

1) On command line, type eboks2pop

2) Connect your mail client to POP3 server at localhost, where username is
your CPR code and your e-boks activation code, such as f.ex: 0123456-7890:kwdElkwjdc
and password is your mobile pincode.

Use on mail server
------------------

1) Create a startup script, f.ex. for FreeBSD see example/eboks2pop.freebsd .

2) Install procmail and fetchmail. Look into example/procmail and
and examples/fetchmail (the latter needs to have permissions 0600). 

3) Add a cron job f.ex.

  2       2       *       *       *       /usr/local/bin/fetchmail > /dev/null 2>&1

to fetch mails once a day. Only new mails will be fetched. This will also work for 
more than one user.

Enjoy!
