Shaw Cable email (shawmail) - POP3 checking from remote computer

Asked by Microfiche in Email Software, Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3)

Tags: shawmail, shaw

Evidently Shaw cable will not allow an IP from outside their domain to access the POP3 server, which really pisses me off, because I need to check my home email from work. They have webmail, but that is a pain - I want something running in the background (I use Easy Notification (http://www.weberik.com)
What I think I need to do is run something on my computer at home (proxy or relay?) that I can point my POP3 checker at from work, and the Shaw email server will see the request coming from their domain. Even though the home machine has a dynamic IP, I will simply change the IP as needed to keep it pointed there.
