   I'm using TIdPOP3 with Indy 9.0.17 and BCB5. Thanks to Remy the 
diagnostics via exception is working, except in two cases where the 
Connect(5000) command doesn't ever return, hanging the application.

- If I set Port to a working non POP port (80, for example)
- If I activate SSL for a non-SSL server

   The programs works OK with a GMail account (port 995 and SSL ON), so 
I think this is not the problem.

   This cases are possible, as the users are not experts. Is there any 
way to avoid this?

TIA
Miguel Gimenez
