For me personally POP3 misses only fewest options, one being
synchronised message deletion (you can flag deletion, but it won't
be honoured unless you quit the session in a sane way, which is
a pain if you download and delete hundred messages after which the
connection breaks, since you have to download them all again).
But my use cases are overly simple.

Regarding S-nail it can't be helped.  It's all my fault, i should
not have tried to maintain and "improve", but instead have cut it
down to the core at very first.  It will be hard enough to come
back with at least SMTP and POP3.  But first of all we have to get
to the point where we can throw it all away.  ^.^
