Why change the mail serve? Just fix the script. Almost any MUA can do it no matter what order the messages are in, why can't your script use the same method? Keep a copy of UID list from the last POP3 session and any new UID's are the new messages, if you only want the last 10 and there are 20, TOP the headers out and order tham by the Date: header. This way your script will work with almost any MTA (I hear some do not support UID's).

Would it be possible to do an filter ?? Where can i have info about creating an filter in order to sort mails in the spool ? The problem is , if we can't have mails in lifo format, we will have to change of mail server and it's a little bit disappointing me to do that..

Nope.
