Nope. POP sucks. Use IMAP. It's great. Rah rah rah.

Ah, this is partially fixable if you have a modern POP server. There's
an extension called PIPELINING that lets you send commands without
waiting for the responses, so you can at least do "DELE 1, DELE 2, DELE
3" and wait for "+OK, +OK, +OK" rather than "DELE 1, wait for +OK, DELE
2, wait for +OK, DELE 3, wait for +OK", which will speed things up a
bit. There's a bug about this in bugzilla. (Search for PIPELINING in the
summary.)

But really, POP sucks. Use IMAP. :)
