The problem here isn't SSL, so let's not discuss that further. It's a
coincidence that this should be reported, because I had the same problem
a few days ago. Outlook crashed when retrieving a certain message from a
POP account. When I looked at the message using mutt, it turns out that
there was a series of dots, all on lines on their own, followed by a
line of text, like this:
.

some text
I'm not sure how or why, but outlook could not deal with this. In the
error it reported to the customer, it spitted out the "some text" line.
In your case, it looks like the message might have such dots, followed
by the text "Learning by doing". I fixed this problem for the client by
editing the message, and doubling the dots. I don't know too much about
POP, but I know that lone dots are meant to be doubled, for transmission
to a client. Do let me know if you discover this to be the problem. It
might be a bug in this version of outlook.
