[Solved - partially] Re: E-mail Download Fails with qpopper
I'm still not totally sure what qpopper's problem was, but I did find
that a simple "apt-get remove qpopper" and then "apt-get install
cucipop" lets me download e-mail from my server via pop all day long.
I'm wondering if qpopper defaults to the wrong type of authentication
or something.
