Webmail can be set to collect mail from any number of additional POP mailboxes to which you have access. For example, your MDaemon Webmail email account may be for work but you may have a separate email account for home that you wish to collect with Webmail, too. Adding your home email account credentials to the Mailboxes section will cause its mail to be collected and pooled with your MDaemon email. You could also then use the Folders and Filters options to sort the mail into specific folders to keep it separate from your work email.
