[Lvlug] Help with thunderbird pop3 deleted email

[Stuart Boreen]

No cmd line access to domaindirect host!
Like I said, I marked the msg for deletion locally, but I 
must not have checked the "save messages on server" box on 
the account setup. All the messages I pulled down are 
there but all run together with headers and attachments. I 
can't find any FAQ or forum post showing how to let that 
file be read and displayed as if the messages weren't 
marked for deletion.
I'm moving to IMAP next!
