Re: Fetching pop3

Yes port 110 opens just fine via both 'telnet' and 'fetchmail'

And I get the same results whether or not I comment out the:  :port "pop3"
or in fact change the "pop3" in that line to "110"

     (setq mail-sources
           '((file :path "/var/spool/mail/user-name")
             (pop :server "pop3.mail.server"
                  :user "user-name"
;;                  :port "pop3 -also tried 110 here-"
                  :password "secret")))

So it seems that it's something I have inadvertently set up, or a
problem with gnus
