But Peter's problem with the mail dispatcher is that it downloads all
message headers prior to selecting a few to download and as Roelof
pointed out, the message headers may be a major portion of the entire
data that needs to be transferred.

With TOP msg n you could retrieve just a selected number of the message
headers - and the MD contains an option that makes use of that command
("download n number of the message body with the headers") already.
