#7404: Partial download of messages via POP3 fails

The mail_daemon POP3 chain fails to get the body of partial messages from
what I believe is a Microsoft Exchange server. (I can get you an account
for testing.)
When opening a partial message the Mail window opens, mostly white/empty,
and dissappears. Then the Mail Status window appears, at zero progress,
and sits there until it times out.
Unless it has been verified to work with more email providers than GMail,
partial download of messages should not be the default setting (always on,
0KB size limit) for POP3.
(FWIW, my personal preference is to get full messages and have them
removed from the server then and there. I think that's how mail_daemon has
worked by default for a very long time.)
