There has been this issue with Netscape: If you were downloading 
a large e-mail by POP-3, it would still make new periodic POP-3 
connections to check for new mail (like once a minute or so!). 
According to RFC, when the second POP-3 connection is opened 
to the same mailbox, the first should die with "Kiss of death" or so. 
(I don't know if qmail-pop3d does that, though. I have seen lots of 
"kiss of death" complaints with ipop3d.) I thought it was fixed with 
recent-enough POP-3 clients...
