That's exactly what Gary is seeing.
Right. Apparently stripped binaries aren't any good for straces.
Its blocking in SSL_accept(). Apparently the client connects to port 995, and then either sends nothing, or goes away and leaves the socket open. I've reproduced the former by telneting to port 995 and doing nothing.
Does it time out eventually, i.e. after 10 minutes? If not that in itself could be considered a bug.
I have been unable to reproduce the latter because as soon as I QUIT the telnet session or kill() the telnet process, pop3d exits gracefully.
The question is how pop3d knows that the connection is dropped. And maybe that's really where dial-up comes into play. In don't know if you're in a position to test that, but what happens if you telnet to port 995 from dial-up and then drop the dial-up connection? I guess I might try that from home now.
