It's in TODO:

    - POP3: add support for LAST command, but make it optional since it has to
      play with \Seen flags (RSET would unset them all with it enabled, not
      very nice).

It's not really difficult to implement with 0.99.10 code either. Just
make RETR command set the \Seen flag for the message (there's a kludgy
update_seen flag because IMAP needs it too). Then with LAST return the
highest message with \Seen flag set. RSET would remove all \Seen flags.
