 Your mail is quite annoyingly formatted: http://learn.to/edit_messages/.

poor baby
keep crying those mailing list tears - I'm sure you really do believe you're
doing your part


 Outlook Express: We are Mircosoft of Borg. Your standards will be

 qmail-pop3d: RTFM, luser... *PLONK*

Every copy of Outlook Express I've used collects email from qmail-pop3d just
fine. Maybe I should try gnus? a-frobnicating into the apparently
in-grokkable(?) we shall go

This is the correct behaviour. Mail will be deleted when the client
sends the QUIT command to the server. If the connection is lost before
the mails will still be there.
Your clients may set up their POP clients so, that they only download
unread mail, so they don't get duplicates. This still leaves the mail
at the server (bad for you) and it slows down the downloading
process. This is not good for flaky connections.

Possibly you should provide compressed UUCP transfers with batch sizes
below 5k. This could be more reliable.

Depends on the client software used. Imagine the following:

mutt:   Hi, qmail-pop3d, it's me...
qmail-pop3d:Hi there, here, have some mail...

OTOH, using Neanderthal Technology, the following dialogue is also
possible:

Outlook Express: We are Mircosoft of Borg. Your standards will be
  assimilated. RFCs are futile.
qmail-pop3d: RTFM, luser... *PLONK*

   Because my pop client are complaining of ,Their mails are not get delete

   mail comes again when they reconnect,

What exactly did you expect? Do you want to delete mail that has not yet
been downloaded?
