A certain version of pop3.el does the following: (while (and (memq (process-status process) '(open run)) (goto-char (point-max)) (forward-line -1) (not (looking-at "+OK"))) (accept-process-output process TIMEOUT) (sit-for 1)) Where `TIMEOUT' is 1.0 for "windows-nt\\|os/2\\|emx\\|cygwin", 0.1 for others by default. I'm not sure but it might have been necessary for the slow connection. >> I cannot try it practically since I have no pop3 server which >> supports ssl, though.
