As Glenn noted, the 'configure' message N. mentions came from an uneasy compromise between worry about the default lack-of-security in Emacs, and worry about backward compatibility (see Bug#26102). Although I favor making --without-pop the default, at this point it's really an issue for the two maintainers to decide.
