Ohh! Now I can reproduce your problem...

In fact, it crossed my mind to ask you before, if you were trying IMAP
or POP3, but I checked the source and the code was exactly the same for
checking new email in IMAP and POP3, so I didn't think that could be the
problem..

I have no idea why it doesn't work with POP3.
I'll try to investigate tonight and say something about it tommorrow...
(hope to submit a patch for it)

Thanks again for your tests.
