Hi Terry,
looking at your 20-pop3.conf's output, you need to uncomment the
highlighted line:
...
 # Note that Outlook 2003 seems to have problems with %v.%u format which was
  # Dovecot's default, so if you're building a new server it would be a good
  # idea to change this. %08Xu%08Xv should be pretty fail-safe.
  #
  #pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv

To

pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv
:wq!

then run:
/etc/init.d/dovecot restart

Thanks
Tam
