    1st stage:
    First go here http://www.e-link.it/macfreepops/.
    You will in "Extra Option" and then on the 1st tab you coches the first 2 boxes and the last.
    Then in the middle of the tab you put in 2000 in the 1st box not checked the 127.0.0.1 and that of a side (address).
    You Macrefreepop launches and magically the window will close.

    2nd stage
    MacfreePop running in the background, to enable each logon is in System Preferences
    Then in the account and the "openness".
    Once you selected in your application then you Macfreepop checking the box.

    3rd stage
    In mail, you create a POP account.
    In Descriptio you put what you want. This is what will appear in the left column in email.
    In the 2 boxes you put tn address. Then Continue.
    Receiving server: 127.0.0.1
    Then again you put your address and password tn (homtail)
    Continue even if there is an error message and then again continue.
    In outgoing mail server puts you smtp.tn fai.fr. eg Orange put smtp.orange.fr then you continued.
    You arrive on a summary page and you clik su finish.
    Still in Mail, you select the POP account you just created.
    If you are on orange, it is a manip to verify. You will in the 1st tab and setting the server. Check if the port is 25 and not much else. otherwise put 25!
    After you go in the "Advanced" tab and you put in the box the port number 25
    You record everything and you farm Mail

    4th stage
    You relaunch Mail.
    And normally you take life as everything works and now you will be forced to go through homtail to check your mails!
    Either you wrote to say that I forgot something!
