Try the "Global/toggle flag" option. Or, for messages you do not wish
to download, manually uncheck "Receive."

As Stuart Cuddy just wrote to you, you can read the messages on the
server by selecting Open. And by unselecting Receive at the same time,
you can leave the message on the server.

You can also permanently unselect the Receive column, requiring you to
manually check the Receive box for messages that you wish to download.
Use the "Global/set flag" option.

Sorry, not to my knowledge.

I use the Message Dispatcher to selectively download my messages as my
routine way of managing my mail. I'm my Own Spam Filter, since I
receive very few unwanted messages. The capability to manually select
those I wish to receive and those I wish to delete is one of the joys
of The Bat! for me.
