No, it doesn't.  I was to quick to draw the conclusion that this was the 
original. @_@

I agree.

Although I usally use ethereal to sniff, or in some cases dump the traffic
with tcpdump -i eth0 -w dumpfilename -s0 and later view the traffic in 
ethereal. Then the pop session can be viewed in clear text by right clicking 
on a pop session packet and selecting "Follow tcp stream".

Another is to just telnet the server on port 110 and enter the commands
necessary. 
telnet mailserver 110
user <username>
pass <password>
list
retr <number>
