Strange, when I received my own message there
were only two dots. I thought I made a mistake
but now I see that you quote three dots. Huh?

Then don't blame (I know you actually didn't) other people. If you
don't have enough bandwidth then you should start to change *your*
way of reading mail when you are on the road. Fetching or
downloading mails (aka POP3) isn't a very clever way to read mails
when using such equipment.
* Don't these toys give you access to a webmail application via a
builtin browser or can't you install a ssh client[1] on them?
* Can't you use IMAP? That means reading mails online and downloading
only those mails that you want to. What applications do you use on
Smartphones?
* etc. etc.
[1] together with screen and a non-gui mailer like mutt a very
powerful combination
