I've been using dma for ages to get mail off all of my machines that
don't need to receive mail, not via SMTP at least. On those machines
I use getmail6 to pull mail from my remote mailboxen onto the local
mailbox (and keep the remote one in check sizewise).
# I used to use fetchmail for that.

Unless your mail client generates lines longer than 998 characters[1] or
folds headers at the "wrong" place[2].
