Maybe you need to re-read the OP message to reconsider your arguments about what "download" means in this specific thread. I still don't see what's the problem in considering that a pop3 account will just download and delete all the e-mails. If the messages are not going to be deleted, then the OP would not have any problem, don't you think? > Accept you lost this argument and cease whilst you're not so far behind.
