The question is how pop3d knows that the connection is dropped. And maybe that's really where dial-up comes into play. In don't know if you're in a position to test that, but what happens if you telnet to port 995 from dial-up and then drop the dial-up connection? I guess I might try that from home now.
That does it ... I disconnected my cable modem while having an open telnet connection to 995. Now that process is stuck.
