Almost all email client programs (such as Microsoft Outlook & Outlook Express, Mozilla Thunderbird, etc) can collect mail using POP3. With POP3, mail is usually downloaded by the email client and stored on the user's local PC. It is then deleted from the mail server, so the only copy is on the user's PC. Any mail folders etc are all managed on the user's PC.
