Does anybody know of a good free POP -> MAPI bridge server for either windows or linux?

Do you mean IMAP or MAPI, as they are two different protocols?

It would be quite easy to do one in linux. Set up fetchmail to fetch the mail from the pop server and imapd, and you're set.

MAPI is Microsoft's proprietary protocol used for Exchange. You may be able to do it with OpenExchange, but most likely you'd have to buy Exchange, and that's not cheap.

What is your purpose for doing this?
