You could try poproute from http://www.ornic.com
It's free and even OpenSource
But it has a limitation - one copy of it cout fetch only till 12 pop3
accounts, but I think, you could run more then one copy simultaneously.

> THE QUESTION (briefly):
> ----------------------------------------
> - Any recommendation on a "POP3 downloader" to use with Exchange?
> - Just want to use it for 2-3 weeks while we migrate to Exchange, so it
> would preferably be SIMPLE and FREE. :)
> - POP3 downloader needs to be able to download e-mail from multiple POP3

>
> THE BACKGROUND (if you have more time):
> ----------------------------------------
> - Our users now have their Outlooks hitting a POP3 server (Unix) on the
> net.
> - We're migrating to Exchange 2k, one user at a time -- simply changing
> each Outlook profile from "POP3" to "Exchange MAPI service."
> - To not disrupt yet-to-be-migrated users, I'd like to keep their

> - Migrated users would have their Outlooks hit the new Exchange server

> - The company's public mail server (listed in DNS MX records) until

> - To do this, I'd need Exchange to hit the external Unix server (using
> POP3) during the migration phase so migrated users can get their mail.
> - I'd need to be able to configure the "POP3 downloader" with the POP3
> username/password of each user (different from the user's Active

> Unix server. Once downloaded the mail would go on the corresponding
> user's Exchange mailbox.
