Cheers all,ever since the pop3s fix I've had trouble connecting to my non-ssl pop3 accounts. I finally got around to debugging it.
After a bit of figuring out, I discovered that my compiler (gcc 3.3.5) doesn't reinitialize static fields on subsequent calls. Not sure if that's ANSI C, didn't check. Either way, char *service should probably not be a static const.
Attached one-liner patch fixes the problem. -Kacper
