What errors are in the event viewer on the Exchange server when this occurs?
If you run a network sniffer, what does the POP3 conversation look like?
POP3 authentication isn't exactly a complex thing

telnet mailserver 110
user username
pass password

You said you are running Windows XP with the POP3 connector. Windows XP is
an operating system and a POP3 connector is not a mail client. Did you mean
to say that you are running some variant of Outlook with the internet e-mail
service? 

Exchange seems like an awfully expensive POP3 server.
