I've had an issue with a few pop accounts like you are describing. I'm running XMail 1.18. One thing that I found with the problems i had were that the network connections were set to 10 MB Full duplex. In certain parts of our building we only have 10 MB switches, so I set the NIC down to 10 MB Half duplex and it worked fine.
