| Does gmx.net support POP or IMAP? If not, you're out of luck.
POP is supported. This is what I use for Gnus (I've never used VM):
(setq mail-sources
'((pop :server "pop.gmx.net"
:user "foo"
:password "bar")))
The username is indeed not the whole email address, only the part before
the @.
Please note that this is not a very secure way of storing your
password. You might want to leave that bit out if you're paranoid.
HTH.
