Hey, the originator of a message must not necessarily be the sender...
In the case of our vampire I guess it means the same.

Yes, only some headers are downloaded in this case.

Yes.

I didn't prove this really - but I _feel_ that all headers are loaded
but only the allowed bodies are retrieved. Correct me if I'm wrong...

Umm, I would imagine that all headers would have to be downloaded for
them to be examined with the filters...  Maybe I'm crazy, but as far
as I understand POP3, you don't really get that much information...

That's correct; kill filters delete the messages on the server before
downloading. (But the headers have to be downloaded to check wehtehr
signal strings are met).

This has advantages, such as killing large messages and thus saving
download time; for me, I check email from different computers. The
first-checking computer has the kill filters (and also "leave messages
on server".) As there can be a long time until I finally download the
mail on my home machine (when I am travelling for example), kill
filters will delete enough spam to make my 1MB space on that
particular server sufficient.

For the same reason that TB! offers only to filter on "sender",
"receiver", "subject", "kludges", "body" and "anywhere".  ;)
