Maybe you need to re-read the OP message to reconsider your arguments
about what "download" means in this specific thread. I still don't see
what's the problem in considering that a pop3 account will just download
and delete all the e-mails. If the messages are not going to be deleted,
then the OP would not have any problem, don't you think?

Don't worry, I understand what are you trying to defend here but I'm
afraid this is not just a wording problem but a conceptual one.
