Please complete these steps to test out the program-

1. Use a remote POP3 email account settings (It has to allow user login without requiring SSL). The easiest way is to signup at aol.com for a free AOL email account, visit https://new.aol.com/productsweb/?promocode=827692&ncid=txtlnkuswebr00000073

2. Once you have your account details, navigate to the Config folder and open the pop3.ini file. It's already prefilled with the aol server name and port number. Input your new username and password.

3. Run the project. 

4. In 2 min, the program will login to the remote pop3 email account and download the email messages.

5. eight seconds after that, the pop3 connection log.txt file is written to, which is where the error generates from.

Thanks,

Patrick
