For all those people who ask "Why in the world can't I delete messages from POP3
boxes" - you need to expunge right after you delete. This flag is not persistent when dealing
with POP3 boxes (compared to IMAP); thus if you had to reconnect to the POP3 server after you
deleted something, but haven't expunged it yet, you loose it. In short, call expunge or
explicitly close the box after you are done with marking messages for deletion.
