I got this in response to my enquiry with AltN about a fix for the problem:

I have just installed and tested 6.5 and it appears not to be vulnerable:

+OK somedomain.com POP MDaemon 6.5.0 ready

-ERR no such message
quit
+OK blah@somedomain.com somedomain.com POP Server signing off (11 messages

Note that for large integers it just returns from the UIDL command as if no
argument were passed at all, but for even larger strings of digits, it
errors that no such message exists.
