Logging into POP server, CAPA [hh:mm:ss PM]
SSL Negotiation Failed: The connection with the server has been lost. Cause (1)
Eudora checks for emails every 10 minutes and very often the above message is the result.
However, I still seem to be receiving emails normally. So, either the message does not matter or sometimes it works and sometimes not.
I am not aware of any change to settings here. Has anything changed at PN?

Some attempts to collect emails succeed. Others fail with the above messages from AVG and Eudora. I do not think I am losing any emails so the situation is bearable. It just does not seem right.
Authentication is by password. I think I must be using port 110 because I cannot see any way of changing it to any other value.

Nothing in the settings in Eudora have been changed in that time as it was working perfectly.

Are there several PN email servers? Might it depend on which one happens to service the request?

At any given moment in the universe many things happen. Coincidence is a matter of how close these events are in space, time and relationship.

Worth checking that you are really using Eudora (rather than Apple Mail) and/or that Apple in their wisdom have not changed the Eudora defaults'

Problem started late last week ( cannot be more specific) and I am running Avast Free Antivirus with Windows 10 Firewall Control under Windows XP SP3. The Firewall Control program is not logging any restrictions on Eudora messaging.
On checking Eudora options under Tools / Options / Checking Mail, I noted that the 'Secure Sockets when Receiving' option was set to 'If Available, STARTTLS' As noted on other emails in the Email forum, PN doesn't yet support SSL encryption on POP3 messaging, so I amended the parameter to 'Never'.
I was then able to download my emails.

Interesting:
> telnet mail.plus.net 110
+OK Hello there.
capa
+OK Here's what I can do:
STLS
TOP
USER
LOGIN-DELAY 10
PIPELINING
UIDL
IMPLEMENTATION Courier Mail Server
Some of the servers seem to be advertising STARTTLS
Here's another attempt a few moments later:
> telnet mail.plus.net 110
+OK Hello there.
capa
+OK Here's what I can do:
TOP
USER
LOGIN-DELAY 10
PIPELINING
UIDL
IMPLEMENTATION Courier Mail Server
.
I shall go forth and investigate...

I too had wondered about that setting but thought that, as it has been set that way for many years without trouble, I should probably leave it alone. Having changed it to "Never" I have tried collecting emails several times in the last few minutes and have seen no error messages.
I wonder if there is a connection with work in progress at http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,132198.msg1245574.html#msg1245574 ?
