You can telnet to port 110 of your POP server and delete it by typing in pop commands.

I used to telnet to a pop server to read my mail (in the happy days before spam) because I worked at a place whose firewall wouldn't allow external pop access. What I did was telnet to a regular login outside the firewall, then telnet to my popserver.

$ telnet server.domain.com 110

Try giving the "HELP" command to find out what commands you can do.
