I got so fed up with TNMPOP3 crashing when retrieving certain emails, I wrote my own POP3 
client around the TClientSocket component and a simple POP3 guide. It was easy, and the 
app I have now never crashes, whatever email I retrieve. Any ideas how to decode attached 
files - is there a free BCB5 Pro VCL component out there to decode base64, UTF-8, UTF-7, 
and BinHex (Mac) attachments?
