So if there are say 100 messages, and it drops after 90, then when I

restart it, it will start downloading all 100 messages all over
again, and if the modem drops again then this can go on for ever....
Is there any way to get Kmail to delete each message off the ISP's
server as soon as it is downloaded?
Fetchmail has an option:
-e <count> | --expunge <count>
Arrange for deletions to be made final
after a given number of messages. Under POP2 or POP3, fetchmail cannot
make deletions final without sending QUIT and ending the session --
with this option on, fetchmail will break a long mail retrieval session
into multiple sub-sessions, sending QUIT after each sub-session. This
is a good defense against line drops on POP3 servers. ...
What you might do is replace your kmail pop account with a local account
(spool-file) and have kmail run fetchmail as the pre-command.
