> Did you change the ppp mtu to 1500 ?

This is the exact step I took:

I have a "pptp" command running from /etc/init.d/pptpadsl under Devil-
Linux (this file was contributed recently to the CVS by me). Among
other flags, this command has the following:
        mtu "$PPTPADSL_MTU" mru "$PPTPADSL_MTU"

PPTPADSL_MTU is defined in another file, where the original value that
I assigned into it was 1452, following the HOWTO.

Changing that value to 1500 resolved everything (although I can't
witness that POP3 works too, since I don't cross any PPP to reach the
POP3 server).

(The current is following; Replace MTU of ppp0 by 1452 to get the
ifconfig BEFORE the fix):

The WinME is connected to eth0 (3Com 3c509), while an ADSL Alcatel
modem is connected to eth3 (8139too). eth0 and eth2 share their IRQ
with the VGA, if it matters (I believe it doesn't, since none of them
is ISA). I did my "experiments" with both a real account of 012 AND a
guest account of ActCom, and the results were the same.

What's that?
(the answer for your question is "no"...)
