My argument here is that received buffer stays full if anythigh goes wrong and 
will be read after new command is sent. If timeout is policy to detect broken 
line, in that moment socket connection should be manually closed. Otherwise 
mentioned problem is present. I can easily forbit to user to set timeout as  
mentioned, but that is not a point.

Second, when line is phisically broken, after Dial-up reconnect and trying to 
connect to (POP3) server from still active application, application will 
freeze, as long buffer is full - USER command will return existed data in 
buffer... Currently, application must be closed in order to free the buffer.

It is on you to decide, I just reported inconsistency and problems.
