Sorry, I had a delayed reaction to the mention of port 995.
That is usually the port for POP with SSL or TLS. Mozilla is
probably attempting to initiate a secure transaction with TLS and your
popper is not currently configured to support it. Check that your
popper is compiled with OpenSSL, check that you have used the correct
value of the -l flag and/or set the appropriate options in the config
file to enable TLS.
