   I found out how to supposedly do this in a telnet examplt on the
web. It is done like this.

C:\Curl\curl_735_0_ssl\curl.exe -O C:\mail.txt -v -u user:password
pop3://mail.myips.net/1 --request dele 1

However, curl gets back a message that the mail was marked for delete,
but the dos window hangs at that point and after closing, the mail has
not been deleted.
