dovecot - Dec 2009 - DELE before QUIT

Hi folks

I'm new to Dovecot. I'm wonderng if it's a way that dovecot delete a
message just after the DELE POP3 command and not just mark the message for
deletion and wait until the QUIT command is received. The main reason is for
slow and unstable links fetching mail this is madness. Any suggestions?

Doing that would violate POP3 protocol specifications. I'm not really
interested in doing such things. You could of course patch your Dovecot sources
if you really wanted it.

Maybe your users should be using IMAP instead of POP3? Or configure mails to be
kept on server so they wouldn't kept downloading duplicates?
