Is it a problem with the mail reader or with the POP server?
Have you checked by telnet'ing in to port 110?
IN case you aren't familiar with the telnet approach,
try something like
telnet your.pop.server 110
When you get a "+OK" prompt from the server, enter
user [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(get a "+OK" prompt)
pass your.password
If the POP server is authenticating properly,
you'll get a "+OK" after the "pass" command.
At this point you can "list" to see the message
in queue or "quit" to bail out.
If you get disconnected after the "pass" command
then the POP server isn't authenticating you.
