+.B \-l, --limit
+Takes a maximum octet size argument. Messages larger than this size
+will not be fetched, not be marked seen, and will be left on the
+server (in foreground sessions, the progress messages will note that
+they are "oversized"). The --all option overrides this one. This
+option is intended for those need to strictly control fetch time
+in interactive mode. It may not be used with daemon mode,
+as users would never receive a notification that messages were waiting.

.B \-S host, --smtphost host
Specify an host to forward mail to (other than localhost).
