*** Please type your report below this line ***

Hello,

Recently ASU has switched into using GMail, which requires us to
authenticate using SSL to pop.gmail.com. As part of this process, they
require our POP usernames to be in the format
"recent:[EMAIL PROTECTED]" as shown in:

https://techbase.asu.edu/wiki/index.php/Setting_Up_Outlook_for_ASU_Gmail_POP_Access

Introducing the prefix "recent:" though confuses popfile which
apparently breaks up the username based on ":". I changed the
separator to ";" in Popfile, and authenticating other email accounts
after this change works. However, Popfile is still unable to handle
the SSL authentication. In my configuration I'm using the username
"pop.gmail.com;recent:[EMAIL PROTECTED];ssl" and Popfile just locks up.

I would have posted this to the Popfile forums directly if I could,
but that requires me to first get a Sourceforge account -- sorry.
