Since I was stuck, and didn't know that 'update', isn't doing
what one would expect from reading the documentation, I
was bound to go in the wrong direction :-{
In the version I use (2.052), only "POP3.pm" contains
sub update() {shift->notImplemented}
Is it intended that the other mailbox types don't raise an error?

As you insist on not calling 'read' and 'write', that would indeed
be the only solution.
But why does it seem to be working? [That's right, I currently don't
understand the consequences of 'weaken'...]
Thanks and best regards,
