What about talking POP3 protocol directly?

telnet pop3.server.org 110
user foo
pass bar
uidl
retr 1
retr 2
retr 3
quit

Does that work? (Try from the client machine first, and if that doesn't
work try again from localhost.)

No. But what do you have in pop3_uidl_format?

If POP3 UIDLs differ, I think it's unlikely the problem is with Dovecot
itself (but instead with some anti-virus/firewall/whatever in the
middle).
