[Dovecot] Question about the pop3 feature "leave messages on server for a certain period of time"

[Joseba Torre]

Hi,

if I understand correctly, this feature is 100% client side, so the 
server does nothing at all. When client connects to the server, the 
client checks mails date and deletes some of them based on its own 
settings.
