not a protocol let alone a competing one.  It's a single feature of POP3 =

(http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2222.txt, =

Microsoft products such as the POP3 server in Windows Server 2003.  = There
are others.  You are correct that Windows Mail, like OE before it, =
doesn't support APOP but it is not for the reason you claim.

     I haven't even seen Windows Mail, but I can tell you with 100% =
certainty
  that they don't support a standard protocol like APOP because this is
  somehow seen as a competing protocol.
