Zimbra + Pop connector

[st3]

Hi. I'm migrating the my mail server from a really outdated Merak server. The current configuration keeps the mail on the ISP's server and user POPBeamer to download only mail for specific users to out local mail server.
What would be the best Free software for such a configuration with Zimbra? Are there any known problems with such a config and Zimbra Collaboration?
Thanx in advance

Hi,

I am using fetchmail and maybe migrate to Getmail due to Some provider issues.
Fetchmail works fine.

Thank you for your response.

I saw on this forum that it was possible to configure something similar in zimbra in preferences -> mail -> Account -> External Accountm but I can't find such a option in Zimbra 8.8
Can Fetchmail or Getmail fetch only emails for predefined addresses or just for all?
The idea is to leave all the random spam at the ISP and do not download it to our server at all.

Also maybe anyone knows a good tutorial on how to configure it?

Still haven't figured this one out.
How do I configure fetchmail to download mail for all users and forward them to the correct mailboxes.

That's certainly there on my 8.8.15 ZCS server, there is a button that has "add external account" and it lets me add an IMAP or POP3 account and retrieve the email.

Yes, but I would have to log in as each user to enable this.
I have 500+ users and AD authentication. This method wount work for me.
