I don't know i did say it "appears",
I do not own a Mac so I can not look at the program to try and figure it
out, but all of our customers on Mac's (all handful of them) that recently
upgraded to the latest version of OE, now get an APOP error. I have gone
through with them on the phone to try and find out if OE is setting that
somewhere, but had no luck.
It is only the newest version of OE however, the older ones work fine.
If you have any suggestions other than enabling APOP, they would be much
appreciated. Are you running apop authentication or popassd or both?
Thanks
John
