And admittely, in such programs (like Getmail or Fetchmail) it is very
useful to have the "keep" option while configuring the application so you
don't delete e-mails unless you are sure they're well routed locally and
messages reach their inboxes.
That's right. Nothing worse than seeing dozens of emails disappearing

As I said before, it's understandable that the default setting is "keep"
in such programs to avoid missing e-mails while testing.
Disagree. Defaults are for the *common* choices. Testing/configuring
takes minutes to days, but the running can go for years.
