I'm not aware of any POP support in OGo.  Are you talking about OGo or
the InstantOGo product, which I think includes POP support via
fetchmail.  That is a feature of the InstantOGo produce, not of OGo.

They aren't, they remain in the mailstore;  OGo accesses the mail store
via IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol).  That is the nature of
IMAP.  <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imap>
