Additional information:
For two of our users (so far) the following solution seems to have
worked. Don't know why. Could the e-mail clients be remembering something
from using the Qpopper 2.5.3, that causes the client (or Qpopper 4.0.1) to
give this error and not receive e-mail?
Possible solution:
I had 1 Outlook and 1 Outlook Express user remove the "account" from the
settings, reboot and re-add the "account" to their e-mail settings. The
error stopped and they received their e-mail.
I would prefer to know why this happens to avoid additional helpdesk calls
from upgrading to 4.0.1. Any ideas, anyone? Thanks in advance.
