User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7b) Gecko/20040316

One to one syncronization with the pop3 account is not possible.

If you use different mail programs, they use the commong mail database which
lays on the pop3 mail server. There should be possibility to syncronize both new
and removed mails between the recieved database on the netscape mail and the
pop3 server.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Send a mail to yourself.
2.Press "Get Msgs" in your netscape mail.
3.Close netscape mail.
4.Open pine and delete that mail.
5.Open netscape and press "Get Msgs".

Actual Results:  
The same mail remains in the netscape mail database.

Expected Results:  
Invoking "Get Msgs" should have removed that mail (if syncronization is enabled).

This is the missing feature why I am not using netscape mail.
