My guess is that you're running into a timeout problem. The pop3 server isn't sending it's welcome message fast enough from the time the connection is established to satisfy evolution. This can happen sometimes if you have ident lookups enabled. I've seen it happen once in a while if dns lookups are enabled and you're connecting from an address that doesn't have a valid dns entry. For example, a 10.* or 192.168.* address. To fix it, first try disabling ident lookups if their enabled. Edit your pop3d and pop3d-ssl configuration files. You'll find an option there called TCPDOPS. Add -noidentlookup to the string. If you want to disable DNS lookups on connection as well, then edit the same two files. Add -nodnslookup to the TCPDOPTS string. - -- They say god has always been.
