well, could you please explain in more details why Pieri is wrong
about the fix?

the current pop3.el behaves buggy. it asks annoying and nonsence
questions when receiving mail via POP3. the original pop3.el by Pieri
does not have such broken behavior.

if you find Pieri's arguments wrong, then please fix pop3.el as you
think it is correct. but current pop3.el is broken.

Best,
