I just go to the command prompt at the server and open a telnet
session to the isp. You can see right away that you do not know the
user name or password.
telnet isppopserver.com 110
user xxxxx
pass xxxx
You may want to open telent first and type set local_echo so you can
see on your screen what you are typing. Once you have turned on the
local echo you type open isppopserver.com 110
