It should be mentioned that I'm talking about the POP filter window.

These hotkeys only mark emails and the real action (Download/Delete/Later) 
occurs only after user hits "OK" button. All changes are shown in the window 
and nothing will surprise user.

If it is necessary to have more mnemonic names for hotkeys I can change 
numbers ("1", "2", "3") to letters:
- "K" (Kill) for deleting on server.
- "L" (Leave, Later) leaves messages on server.
- "R" (Receive) downloads emails.  

Do you think the above changes will be more convenient for the user?

I'd be glad to get any suggestions.

Best regards,
