Could you offer some suggestion how to fetch mailbox content over
high RTT link (with negligible packet loss)?
Currently I use IMAP+IDLE *but* it fails to use full available bandwidth
due to high RTT and "send command wait for response" nature of POP3 and
IMAP4 protocols.
Is this a satellite phone question?
I build a bunch of products to help with this, but for a fairly
specialist market. You can probably contact me offlist via this email
address or any of them on the website below?

However, we use lots of compression, pipelining and some predictive
fetches to wring every bit of performance out of a 2.4Kbit connection
with 1.5s+ latency
Good luck
