Yes, it does advertise PIPELINING and it should not. I will fix that for 
the pop3 daemon. (Thanks for making me look.)

Can the mpop --pipelining option still be honored either way though? It 
seems like if the mpop user wants to turn it off, then it should turn off.

As it is now, the manual page is unclear. It should say the option is 
ignored if the POP3 server announces it has PIPELINING capability.
