One of posted logs here was showing ~ 2MB message, second only ~8kb.=20

Anyway take a look at my first log sent to mailing list

Dec 10 17:11:12 gucio tpop3d[2209]: do_retr: client=20
[7]abakus(195.116.149.253): sending message 39 (2205377 bytes)

so ~2MB

Dec 10 17:11:12 gucio tpop3d[2209]: do_retr: client=20
[7]abakus(195.116.149.253): sent message 39

tpop3d finished sending message to client

Dec 10 17:18:00 gucio tpop3d[2209]: connection_sendresponse: client=20
[7]abakus(195.116.149.253): sent `-ERR You can hang around all day if you=20
like. I have better things to do.'
Dec 10 17:18:00 gucio tpop3d[2209]: net_loop: timed out client=20
[7]abakus(195.116.149.253)
Dec 10 17:18:01 gucio tpop3d[2209]: connections_post_select: client=20
[7]abakus(195.116.149.253): finished session for `abakus ' with mysql

Dec 10 17:18:01 gucio tpop3d[2209]: connections_post_select: client=20
[7]abakus(195.116.149.253): disconnected; 64/719042 byte s read/written

but only 719042 bytes written? Message was ~2MB and tpop3d wrote ,,sent=20
message''! Looks like some tpop3d bug.
