>Description:
The wmpop3 use LAST command to POP3 server. But 
LAST command of POP3 is removed at RFC1725. 
The POP3 is defined at RFC1081, RFC1225, RFC1460,
RFC1725, RFC1939. Yes, the LAST command is defined 
among RFC1081 and RFC1460. So some POP3 servers can
use LAST command. But the other POP3 servers cannot
use it.

People that uses POP3 server without LAST command 
support cannot use the wmpop3. This is not
desirable(I am using a POP3 server that does not
supprt LAST command. It is slightly sad). I want 
Mr. Scott Holden(who made wmpop3) to release the 
new version which applied the patch. I mailed to
him but no replay. So I write this message as
FreeBSD problem report. Please commit this.

>How-To-Repeat:
Use pop3 server that dose not support LANT command.
>Fix:
Update wmpop3 ports with follow patch.
