I'm beginning to believe that it was a client disconnect. It's very hard to tell why.... on the client machine ALL POP3 clients fail. Eudora, Outlook 2003, and a Telnet to port 110..
Interesting that all clients fail.
I'd suggest a client-side trace or a TCP packet trace. Or, a kernel trace on the server side (run Qpopper on a new port and run it via ktrace, truss, or the equivalent on your platform).
To enable client-side tracing in Eudora:
On Macs, drag the "esoteric settings" plug-in (which comes with Eudora) from the "Extra Plugins" folder to the "Eudora Stuff" folder. Quit and restart Eudora. Then in your Eudora settings go to "Logging". Check "all bytes transferred".
On Windows, move the "esoteric.epi" plug-in (which comes with Eudora) from the "extrastuff" folder to the same folder as the "eudora.exe" file. Quit and relaunch Eudora. Then in your Eudora settings go to "Logging". Check "all bytes sent" and "all bytes received".
