Summary: The popper will mark all messages in the spool 'Status: O' when the pop connection is closed regardless of what messages were actually popped. When the POP connection is lost while popping, all messages are marked 'O', including ones not fetched. This causes all unfetched messages from a broken connection to be silently dropped on the floor upon next successful pop connection because the pop client is informed those messages were already seen.
