DIAGNOSTICS

       Error: Cannot create POP3 client for $name.
           The connection to the POP3 server cannot be established.  You may see more, related,
           error messages about the failure.

       Error: Cannot find head back for $uidl on POP3 server $name.
           The server told to have this message, but when asked for its headers, no single line
           was returned.  Did the message get destroyed?

       Error: Cannot read body for $uidl on POP3 server $name.
           The message's headers are retrieved from the server, but the body seems to be lost.
           Did the message get destroyed between reading the header and reading the body?

       Warning: Changes not written to read-only folder $self.
           You have opened the folder read-only --which is the default set by new(access)--, made
           modifications, and now want to close it.  Set close(force) if you want to overrule the
           access mode, or close the folder with close(write) set to "NEVER".

       Error: Copying failed for one message.
           For some reason, for instance disc full, removed by external process, or read-
           protection, it is impossible to copy one of the messages.  Copying will proceed for
           the other messages.

       Error: Destination folder $name is not writable.
           The folder where the messages are copied to is not opened with write access (see
           new(access)).  This has no relation with write permission to the folder which is
           controlled by your operating system.

       Warning: Different messages with id $msgid
           The message id is discovered more than once within the same folder, but the content of
           the message seems to be different.  This should not be possible: each message must be
           unique.

       Error: Folder $name is opened read-only
           You can not write to this folder unless you have opened the folder to write or append
           with new(access), or the "force" option is set true.

       Error: Invalid timespan '$timespan' specified.
           The string does not follow the strict rules of the time span syntax which is permitted
           as parameter.

       Warning: Message $uidl on POP3 server $name disappeared.
           The server indicated the existence of this message before, however it has no
           information about the message anymore.

       Warning: Message-id '$msgid' does not contain a domain.
           According to the RFCs, message-ids need to contain a unique random part, then an "@",
           and then a domain name.  This is made to avoid the creation of two messages with the
           same id.  The warning emerges when the "@" is missing from the string.

       Warning: POP3 folders cannot be deleted.
           Each user has only one POP3 folder on a server.  This folder is created and deleted by
           the server's administrator only.

       Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
           Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does not implement this
           method where it should. This message means that some other related classes do
           implement this method however the class at hand does not.  Probably you should
           investigate this and probably inform the author of the package.

       Error: Unable to create subfolder $name of $folder.
           The copy includes the subfolders, but for some reason it was not possible to copy one
           of these.  Copying will proceed for all other sub-folders.

       Error: Update of $nr messages ignored for POP3 folder $name.
           The standard POP3 implementation does not support writing from client back to the
           server.  Therefore, modifications may be lost.

       Error: Writing folder $name failed
           For some reason (you probably got more error messages about this problem) it is
           impossible to write the folder, although you should because there were changes made.

       Error: You cannot write a message to a pop server (yet)
           Some extensions to the POP3 protocol do permit writing messages to the server, but the
           standard protocol only implements retreival.  Feel invited to extend our
           implementation with writing.
