Ah yes, the PHP way. Instead of getting a library that does POP, just hack together a half-working implementation that may or may not randomly lose data. Good plan.
Oh come on. This is POP we're talking about, not a full fledged SOAP client. Writing your own POP client is easier and takes less time than scavenging the internet for someone else's, looking through it to see if it doesn't have bugs and testing it.
In fact, I'd argue that if you've never written any sort of network client code, writing a POP client is perfect to get you started. It's just that simple.

knee-jerk, much?
