The problem is I can't see any message within inbox. The message seems
to be really left on the remote pop server (and I can see it with tools
such as xbiff for exemple) but I can't get it using mew ("i" only
produces the message "no new message (1 message left)", "I" produces
"No message"). I think there is a bad operation of mine, but I can't
understand what.

Thanks for your help.
