The copyright situation doesn't allow us to include this version, see the following comment near `pop3-leave-mail-on-server' in `pop3.el': ;; We can't use the UILD support from XEmacs mail-lib or cvs.m17n.org: ;; http://thread.gmane.org/v9lld8fml4.fsf@marauder.physik.uni-ulm.de ;; http://thread.gmane.org/b9yy8hzy9ej.fsf@jpl.org ;; Any volunteer to re-implement this?
