Comment:

 We're upgrading the SquirrelMail POP3 class in #17064 but it doesn't look
 like it fixes this.  However, I think this is a bug that needs to be
 reported to the [http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=311&atid=100311
 SquirrelMail project].

 For now if you receive false, just check POP3->ERROR.  If it's empty then
 you got 0 messages and if it contains an error then the error explains
 what went wrong.

 I recommend closing as wontfix.  This is currently one of our few
 libraries that looks like we haven't modified at all.
