CHAPTER 3
Did You Know?
The POP protocol does
not support retrieval of
unread mail only from the
server. If you have a POP
email account, the
VersaMail application
downloads all messages
from the server
regardless of whether
you have read them (for
example, on your desktop
or on the web), and
regardless of whether
this box is checked.
