Is it possible to override the POP3 delete on download command and make sure that messages stay on the server for at least X hours or X days? It is important that the messages be around long enough to hit a snapshot cycle (using rsnapshot to backup ever hour).
Now that I think about it, even better would be a way to move the messages into an archive box when they are downloaded, this way they will be entirely invisible from the POP3 access, and I can use normal expiry functions to clean out that archive after backup.
From a data flow (and privacy protection) POV, that wouldn't be much different anymore from having *the MTA* feed a copy of (all incoming) e-mails directly into an archiving mechanism, would it?
