Hi,

check out SaveMyModem on savemymodem.sourgeforge.net (as I remember  
correctly), it works much like procmail but does it as pre-pop, i.e. it will  
check on the server before you start the download, delete them from there  
based on several rules and saves you downloading. Logging is not so good at  
this time, but it has a nice interactive shell. Unfortunatly it is not yet  
possible to shoot this from balsa, but you can of course have it run on  
machine startup or through a cron job.
