qpopper is your friend I believe. I use it with SSL to have a nice
encrypted pop experience and it hasn't given me grief aswell.
major downside to it: the docs are pdf but if you can get around that
then you're sweet.
it's very configurable and has not given me grief after about 7-8 months
of use. be sure to get the latest version though (which I believe is 4.0.3).
