I have an email ingroup working fine with 2 IMAP accounts.

I tried setting up a POP3 account (I know the emails will be deleted) but it won't work. When I run AST_inbound_email_parser.pl --debugX I get an error about the password but I know the password is correct because I copied the username and password I have in the Vicidial settings and pasted it directly at the online web email login screen and I got into the email account.
I also changed the .pl script to display $VARemail_pwd in the debug message so I know the password isn't being 'modified'. The password contains no special characters and is 8 characters long.

I changed the email in the below text to xxx@xxx.com

Error connecting to server. Please try again later.

Any thoughts?

I got it to work by adding AUTH_MODE => "PASS" as a parameter at line 619:

$pop = new Mail::POP3Client( USER => "$VARemail_user",
PASSWORD => "$VARemail_pwd",
HOST => "$VARemail_server",
PORT => 995,
USESSL => true,
AUTH_MODE => "PASS",
DEBUG => "$DBX",
)

Perhaps this should be added as a field in Vicidial because if I later try to add another POP3 account that uses APOP or CRAM-MD5 the code will fail. The default value for this field is BEST.

Thanks for the note!
