Public bug reported:
It is not possible to receive mail using the POP3 protocol if the server
supports the UTF8 Unicode capability. It is required to remove the flag to the
"Enable UTF-8 Extension, when the server supports it" option in server
configuration.
The problem seems to be that Evolution sends the following commands to the POP3
server:
CAPA
UTF8USER loginname
PASS password
As you can see, there is a missing newline after the UTF8 command.
I verified this by sniffing the traffic at both client and server sides,
with SSL disabled.
