If we use something like coroutine (yeild for each new element from LIST) we can not do anything with pop3 server during iteration. (we can not retrive or delete message). We only can store this ids somewhere. For now you can do for no = 1, mbox:stat() do local id = mbox:uidl(no) local msg = mbox:message(no) ... end But you should be careful with DELE. May be it has sense for UIDL. We can sync local storage (but if i correct understand severel messages can have same id and we still need test message themself).
