        I've been having the same POP server problem as Dan since I joined
    my new ISP
        last week. I now have two pop accounts, telnet server 110 tells me
    the
      first is QPOP (version 2.53) which I have no problems with, the
    second
        from my new ISP is Microsoft POP3 Server Version: 5.5.1877.117.11

        I keep getting the message box

        Error while performing operation:
        Could not connect to <the_microsoft_server> (port 110): Connection
    refused

        After I do a telnet to the server it seems to work OK. If I then
    quit
        evolution and restart the problem returns. Also I have no problems
    using
      Mozilla mail to get mail from both accounts.

        I don't know if the servers support APOP (I don't use it).

        I'm using Evolution 0.9 [+cvs.2001.03.06.23.27] from daily
    snapshots
        with RedHat 7.0 and Gnome 1.4 beta.
