Using a mail account on dogma

I know this is a dumb question, but what is the best way to use my
newly created mail account on dogma (thanks Lee!)?

I sent a test mail to mark at ukug.uk.freebsd.org and of course I can
read it by rsh'ing to dogma and running ``mail'', but how do I use
mutt (on my local machine) to read it?

I set up pop_user etc in .muttrc:

set pop_host='dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org'
set pop_user='mark'
set pop_pass='who_knows'
set pop_delete

but I just get

connect: Connection refused (errno = 61)

I suppose that's because there's no POP server running on dogma?

So, how to do it?
