Oh, the other possibility of course: You seem to be using mbox format? If the message's IMAP UIDs change, the POP3 UIDL changes and the messages get redownloaded. You should at least explicitly set mail_location setting so Dovecot doesn't use autodetection. Also look for Dovecot errors in log file.
