On the contrary - POP is Post office protocol, which is the mechanism
by which you can pick up mail from a remote machine, such as a mail
server. So when you use a mail client to "Check your mail", you point
it at a POP server; the POP server asks your client for a username
and password; the client provides it; and the POP server surrenders
your mail to you.
