;;; Commentary:

;; Most of the standard Post Office Protocol version 3 (RFC 1460) commands
;; are implemented.  The LIST command has not been implemented due to lack
;; of actual usefulness.
;; The optional POP3 command TOP has not been implemented.

;; This program was inspired by Kyle E. Jones's vm-pop program.
