Actually, it's because I access my account from a variety of locations, 
and the last one of the day is usually direct to unix, at which point I 
make a last check of the mail to ensure it's dealt with, _then_ delete 
it.

So far, the only thing I've found which provides the functionality nicely 
is Eudora Pro - it doesn't care even if it's new mail or not, if it 
hasn't seen it, it copies it down. But if it has seen it, it ignores it. 
That's all I want an Amiga mailer to do.
