  I have used PRM for several years before I moved to PMMail, and I
can tell you that PRM does _not_ support to skip an individual
message when you fetch the whole mailbox from the POP3 server (except
by configuring some general criteria, like size or so). The CTRL-K in
PRM is to interrupt and close the connection, not to skip the current
message being downloaded and continue with the next. There is no way
of doing that except by the socalled "remote control", i.e. looking
at the POP3 office and selecting individually which message to
download, which to delete and which to leave on the server.
