Comm-Unity Networking has released POP3it 2.0 Final. The FileMaker Pro plug-in allows FileMaker developers to add basic POP e-mail functionality directly to their databases, without the need of an external e-mail client. According to Comm-Unity Networking:
Comm-Unity Networking Systems announces the release of POP3it 2.0 Final, for FileMaker Pro 4.x and 5.x for both Macintosh and Windows Platforms.
POP3it is a very flexible FileMaker plug-in that allows you to receive email directly into FileMaker without the aid of any helper applications. To use it, all you will need is an email account, a POP3 server, and FileMaker Pro 4.x or 5.x.
