As I understand how some POP3 implementations work, when you delete a

Right. All RFC-compliant POP3 servers work that way. But the current repository interface does not have a suitable API to perform a batch delete, e.g., delete(Collection keys), hence the queuing "hack."

Ok, I was too generous with my suggestion.


Yes, I think it should work this way, and given as you both say, it's "RFC-mandated", I think we should change the API to reflect this.
