I was hoping Dovecot could be not so RFC compliant in this matter. Anyway if gets the DELE command the message arrived safely to the client.
Any other POP3 server not so RFC compliant?
Thanks for the answer.
Breaking RFCs to get the functions you want is a *bad* idea. What happens if you get hit by a bus and someone else has to deal with the issue, sees that the config is "broken" and "fixes" it.
You're much better off using a protocol which supports an immediate delete from the server, like IMAP. Unless, of course, the issue is with a lack of disk space on the server.
