You say this every time POP3 collection comes up Richard (or at least,
someone does) and I think you are overstating the problem!

We use POP3 collection, and have done for years on Linux and on Windows,
and haven't lost a single message. The worst that has ever happened is
that something gets dumped in my inbox (as admin) rather than directly
to the user. And 99/100 that's a bit of spam that's got a malformed
header anyway!
