Are you saying that TPU growing is a bad thing?

The Sun Java web site has links to several JavaMail tutorials.

And there are loads of POP3/SMTP client already programmed that are opensource if you are really stuck you can always go throught their code.

POP3 and SMTP aren't terribly complicated protocols (well, they can get complicated if you use encryption). E.g. to send a message to an smtp server you basically send EHLO when it says HELO and then send your message (or was it the other way around?)
