I can't vouch as to whether it works because I don't use POP, but the following program was posted to Perlmonks yesterday. http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=292982 David Thanks David, and to Bart Lateur (the author of the perl script), I'm using the perl script from the above link and it's working fine. It's already saving me download time and bandwidth. Great news. You should post to the page in question and relate your success. You don't have to create an account, Perlmonks supports slashdot anonmymous-coward-type posts. I'm sure other people would like to hear confirmation that the scripts works from a third party.
