Grab a copy of CFX_TCPClient from
http://www.intrafoundation.com/freeware.html. Then do the following:
- connect to port 110 of the mail server
- wait for +OK
- send USER <user name>
- wait for +OK
- send PASS <password>
if the server responds with +OK then the user/pass were accepted. If the
server responds with -ERR then the user/pass were NG.
- send QUIT to the server to disconnect.
