I’d like to start investigating new post by email and am trying to configure things to check an email inbox we maintain elsewhere. I’ve got incoming (email\_in) and the associated config lited in [Configuring incoming email to create new topics or group messages](https://meta.discourse.org/t/start-a-new-topic-via-email-e-mail/62977) configured and am looking at the category configuration on the category I want these emails to arrive in. I can set the “Custom incoming email address” setting, but I don’t see where I would configure pop3 polling for that mailbox - everything I can find about setting up polling has to do only with self-hosted account and not [discourse.org](http://discourse.org) accounts.

Does this mean that custom pop3 accounts aren’t available for [discourse.org](http://discourse.org) sites and that I just need to forward email to the discourse-generated incoming email address? Or am I totally missing some step in the documentation somewhere?

Thanks!
