There are couple of solutions to this:

* mutt: http://www.mutt.org
* fetchmail:

The 4.7.5 release of fetchmail is now available at the usual locations,
including <URL:http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/fetchmail> and
<URL:ftp://ftp.ccil.org/pub/esr/fetchmail>.

or (perl based)

POP3Client-1_15
(get from: ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/FreeBSD/distfiles/POP3Client-1_15.tar.gz)

* pine: ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/pine/
* imap client

This IMAP client also has a POP3 client:

ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/mail/imap.tar.Z (U of Washington)

* qpopper: http://www.eudora.com/freeware/servers.html

ftp://ftp.qualcomm.com/eudora/servers/unix/popper/qpopper2.53.tar.Z

Fetchmail, mutt, pine, qpopper are all available from Sun Freeware site. But
may not be for all OSs and may not be the lastest.
