Steps to reproduce:

POP3 Message download


Actual results:

The messages start downloading from first message(from the time i created my account) to the last message(the recent ones)


Expected results:

It should start downloading from the recent ones to the old ones, or at least it should download in group like first 100(from back wards, 100th one first) and then 500th to 100 and all. Looks like Evolution and Geary has the same feature.
Thanks for reporting this. It is covered under bug 385777
