The <6526 958079077 www freestylesoft com> in the initial connection
line indicates that the POP server supports APOP, which will make
Evolution use APOP rather than USER/PASS. I suppose what this probably
means is that your pop server is set up to do APOP but not set up to
do APOP for *you*. So I guess Evolution has to stop trying to be so
clever.
