  Here are the typical commands in the typical order
(and what they mean if not obvious):

telnet <pop3 server> 110        OR
telnet <pop3 server>:110        (depends on your telnet client)

user <username>
pass <password>
list                            (gives number of messages and sizes)
top 1 10                        (gives first 10 lines of message #1)
dele 1                  
quit
