Hello,
sorry for the delay with the reply but I had to ask for help elsewhere as
I didn't understand very well what was going on here. I did get help but
the problem is that it still doesn't explain much :-(
Anyhow, here is what I found out:
1. the "SECURITY PROBLEM" message can be ignored, it just means that the
server is in violation of the RFC but it shouldn't result in any
problems
2. everything else looks correct, so here is what Mark Crispin wrote in
reply to my question as to why the authentification failed:
Either the password is wrong, or there is something wrong with the
server (possibly its authentication database isn't set up right).
I'd suggest bringing in the Stalker people since Communigate Pro is
their product; they'd be the ones to persue that question and
determine what's going on.
So all I can do is to repeat the advice that you
a) check your password (I guess you already did it but well... BTW, can
you login manually to your POP3 server by doing "telnet pop 110" and
typing in "USER yourname" and "PASS password"?)
b) contact your POP3 server vendor

Mark has also explained me how to do this but it's not possible in 0.64
unless you're willing to rebuild it yourself.
Regards,
VZ
