Mr. Gober has tried to work from home, but has had trouble retrieving e-mail and voice mail.

Each country has its own rules and regulations as to how one can retrieve mail at a PO Box.

There is no cost to rent a post office box, but the renter must be able to retrieve mail regularly (daily, in principle) from the box.

Frequently, the amount of junk mail is so great that patrons must go to the desk to retrieve other mail which could not fit in the box.

An executive could point at the in basket to retrieve electronic mail and wave the junk mail into the wastebasket.

Another $5 a month lets you retrieve mail from your in box by dialing in with a standard modem when you are on the road.

A user could retrieve electronic mail, for example, without leaving a word-processing application.

It can be instructed to log on to the various services automatically, assuming one already has an account with those services, to retrieve and deliver mail.

It can be uncomfortably crowded in the p.o. box foyer/window area if a mere 4-5 customers are in line, or retrieving mail from their boxes.

This feature does not support retrieving mail from IMAP servers.
