T65: pop3 & mime attachements

Since T65 does not support IMAP4 like T68, one must always download all the mail received... It costs and it takes time, specially if certain messages contain (large) [MIME] attachments.

I don't know, maybe there is a threshold size, so far I tried with attachments of up to 10K and my T65 downloaded whole messages. However, it doesn't support handling of (most or all?) MIME attachments, so this downloading is mainly wasting of time and money.

Better implementation would be that e-mail client looks into the simple MIME attachment header, finds that it doesn't support the format (pdf, exe, etc.) and skips to the next message.

Correct me if I am wrong.
