The above suggests that the 'don't use pop extensions' feature isn't
enabled for that account.  Still, it doesn't look, at least from that
log, that it should be causing any specific issues, assuming the server
is properly returning an -ERR response code to a command it doesn't
grok.

You can find out at the evolution end what the protocol exchange is by
running evolution with CAMEL_VERBOSE_DEBUG set to 1 in the environment,
and looking at its output in a terminal window.

3-4 messages?  Does it always stop on the same message?  Can you try
moving that message manually on the server?  It looks like the error is
coming from the server.
