I'm trying to understand how memory.pm gets flushed.

At home I download unread mail from the server at work without
deleting -- that way I can still access all the mail when I get to work.

Occassionally "read mail" is also downloaded. Over the recent
holiday break this problem became annoying. One list was receiving
bounced mail from a subscriber, causing a loop that generated
hundreds of emails. For me, the problem was exacerbated on
popping as all unread mail as well as new mail was also downloaded.

In trying to diagnose the problem, I thought that one possibility is
that the memory.pm reaches a certain size and then is automatically
flushed. Hence, some previous downloads would not be in the list. Is
this so?

Looking forward to an interesting discussion.
Peter
