But isn't it when the POP3 protocol supports a mail client asking how big
the messages are? It seems like an extra feature that isn't needed, and the
appropriate route would be to make an RFE to Microsoft to add the
functionality to Outlook to do what he wants. Although I thought there was a
feature already in Outlook to fetch headers and to download messages under a
certain size, but I don't really use Outlook so I'm just assuming that
Outlook doesn't do that.
