    Postfix is a Mail Transport Agent (MTA). It does not provide pop3 services. You need a pop3 server like Cyrus, Courier, Dovecot, et al, for that. A Mail User Agent (MUA) is what you use to pop the mail and read it. A client side example is Thunderbird (from Mozilla), a web server example is Squirrelmail.

    You might want to have a look at the Postfix Howto/FAQ page. Google "postfix howtos and faqs".
