Use "telnet <hostname> 110" to call up your POP server.  Log in with "USER
<username>" and "PASS <password>".  The server should then tell you how many
messages are in your mailbox, and the total size in bytes.  At this point
you could actually read your messages, but I don't remember the appropriate
commands.  "QUIT" will log you off.
