As long as I use it now (several weeks) the Netpas script to fetch mail headers only (and delete spam at the POP3 server) works quite pretty.
I've just set up a slightly improved version at the URL: ==> www.inti.be/hammer/playnet/autopop4.zip One among my various e-ccounts, however, has a really strange behaviour: After a first log-on, with getting the "list" of stored mails there and doing this and that, the volumes of the (remaining) mail items are increased each by 10 bytes. After a second/consecutive logon to that server, _OR_ after a time lapse (difficult to find out how long), yet another volume increase of 1 byte is done there for those mail items which had been left at the server. _Sometimes_, apparently after a long enough intervall between log-ons, 11 bytes have been added to the volume of each remaining item. Only from a third (or even fourth) logon on will mails left at the server be shown with a stable indication of their volume in the "list" of mails stored. Not one of the other POP3 servers I can check (at five different hosts) does ever show anything like that. Would anyone have an explanation ?
