Default mutt-1.5.21p1v0-sasl pop3 - Mail to laptop and Desktop

The issue I am having with mutt1.5 is that the built in pop3 retrival
, with
Code:
set pop_last=yes
set pop_delete=no
is that I am only able to download the emails to one machine. I previously
would download to both my laptop and desktop.

Ideally, changing a setting in my present muttrc would simplest but my searches
suggest that the pop3 retrival function in mutt does not support UIDL.

My present muttrc with personal information redacted.

If there is no easy fix I will install getmail/nmh and use it to invoke getmail.
