Summary:  pop3 failed authentication gives us an infinite loop

Original Submission:  I'd  like to report that there is a bug in the "close" 
function in the "class.mail_dcom_pop3_sock.inc.php" file that works like this:
failed pop3 authentication makes mail_dcom->open() (as defined in file 
"class.mail_dcom_pop3_sock.inc.php") to call mail_dcom->error() which in turn 
tries to close the connection by calling mail_dcom->close().
But the pop3 connection has been closed already by the server, so 
mail_dcom->close() fails to do so and calls mail_dcom->error() to handle the 
situation, which in turn calls mail_dcom->close(), and so on.
The quick solutions is to comment out the $this->error() call in the 
mail_dcom->close() (defined in "class.mail_dcom_pop3_sock.inc.php").
