You'll have to play with matching :predicate and :fetchflag configs. The
:predicate can target flags (the default appears to be "UNSEEN
UNDELETED") and then :fetchflag can set a flag that will be filtered out
by subsequent fetches.

The pop mail source doesn't have an equivalent predicate, and I assume
it would just fetch everything.

Nothing has changed with mail sources or fetching in the past several
months...
