- Commandline options
- ===================
- Usage: popcheck [-s pop3 server] [-u pop3 user] [-p pop3 password] [-o filename] [-i filename]
-
- -s and -u are the only ones that are required. Popcheck will ask you for
- a password if it isn't supplied on the command line.
-
- -o and -i are for batch mode. Use with caution, because you can easily delete all your
- mail using this function.
-
- Keys when using the curses interface
- ====================================
- UP, p - Up one line
- DOWN, n - Down one line
- PGUP, - - Up one page
- PGDN, space - Down one page
- d - Mark/Unmark message
- s - Exit and save changes
- q - Exit without saving anything
-
-
- Batch mode
- ==========
- * Run popcheck with the -o switch first to make a textfile with all
- messages, including numbers and sizes.
-
- * Edit this file and remove all lines describing mail you want to keep.
-
- * Make sure the only lines in the file are those describing the mails you
- want to REMOVE. Please double-check because there is no turning-back
- after you execute popcheck with the -i switch.
-
- * Run popcheck with the -i switch. All messages matching the message
- numbers and sizes (in the file) will be removed from the POP server.
-
- Please note that you run this program on your own risk. It's very easy
- to remove messages that you want to remove, but also to remove messages
- that you didn't want to remove. BE CAREFUL.
