Well, the tcpclient2 com object should be able to be used to write a cf_pop
custom tag that overcomes all these problems. If you were trying to do a
cf_smtp there would be performance issues since it wouldn't do an automatic
cache/retry, but as far as POP3, there's not much different.
If you ever get a fully functionally, bug-free cf_pop3 tag working I could
probably even be convinced to rework it into a COM or a CFX for speed -- but
I think it best to keep it a custom tag. Easier for everyone to customize
and tweak.
