Little bit of clarification here, so no one panics over this
hypothetical mail situation ...

Not "all mail" will be deleted.  Only the mail which has had a dele
command sent will be deleted at the time the QUIT is issued.  And
Arachne sends the dele commands one at a time, after each successful
download.  

Thus only the mail that was downloaded intact will be deleted
from mail server in the case of aborted POP3 run.
