One doesn't.(*) One uses POP as a spool file specification. Here's
how:
(1) Compile movemail with POP support (Emacs configuration option
--with-pop or something).
(2) Set the environment variable MAILHOST to where the POP server is.
(3) Use the following as nnmail-spool-file: "po:foo" where "foo" is
your POP account.
I use this, and it works. There's also pop3.el (comes with Gnus), but
I don't know how to use it.
(*) Sorry for nitpicking, just couldn't resist...
