Hello All.   
      
   Recently I have had occasional trouble with IRex's POP3 server talking to my   
   e-mail clients.  Here's a snippet from the current log:   
      
   -o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-CUT-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-   
      
   * 02:10:13 (9) Incoming connnection from router.bbsgroup (10.0.0.1)   
     {wrapped} on 11/24/12.   
   ] 02:10:13 (9) +OK Internet Rex POP3 server ready <2201.1353744613@mailserv>   
   = 02:10:13 (9) CAPA   
   ] 02:10:13 (9) CAPA   
   = 02:10:13 (9) APOP Postmaster xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx   
   > 02:10:13 (9) User Postmaster logged in.   
   ] 02:10:13 (9) +OK Mailbox locked and loaded.   
   ! 02:10:13 (9) Connection closed: remote dropped the connection.   
      
   -o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-CUT-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-   
      
   Those "CAPA" lines get picked up as an error by the email client and it drops   
   the connection.  A second try will /usually/ succeed.  But this is still   
   curious in that it has not happened with this particular email client ever in   
   the past. (The Bat! Professional 5.1)  And it's not only from one computer;   
   the one at my job (with the same version of The Bat! has been running into   
   this quirk recently.  Certain other clients ALWAYS get this error   
   (specifically Thunderbird and Outlook/Outlook express when using straight   
   password log-in - not APOP - Outlook and its kin are incapable of APOP   
   password negotiation.)   
      
   Has anyone else seen this and does anyone know the root cause?  This is where   
   Charles would be really handy to have in the echo. ;(   
      
   Best regards,   
   Marc
