Each object which extends Mail::Transport::Receive implement a protocol which can get messages into your application. The internals of each implementation can differ quite a lot, so have a look at each separate manual page as well.
Current message receivers:
Mail::Transport::POP3
Implements the POP3 protocol. See also Mail::Box::POP3.
See documentation in base class.
See "METHODS" in Mail::Transport

Specifying explicit locations for executables of email transfer agents should only be done with absolute file names, to avoid various pontential security problems.
The explicitly indicated mail transfer agent does not exists. The normal settings are used to find the correct location.
Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does not implement this method where it should. This message means that some other related classes do implement this method however the class at hand does not. Probably you should investigate this and probably inform the author of the package.
