I'd vote for A, as a forced poll might be because one wants to deliver/clear all mail waiting for a node for some reason.

I know ifcico (as an example) offers "Hold" (really hold) and "NoHold" (send held packets if we initiated the session). Not sure how binkd handles things like this.

Best regards
