Ok,

  One more shot at this fix.  The last one didn't work because each
command overwrote the cmdtype, so the last one (QUIT) was rarely/never
from the APOP command itsself.  Anyways, this one just saves a flag
if it was an APOP session, not the actual commandtype index.  It is
a patch against current (as of 5 min. ago) cvs, which has changed
since the last time, so grab a fresh copy.  (I can make the patch
against older cvs versions too, if anyone needs it just ask.)

  Please report your success with it.

Thanks,
Jesse
