1) It is a solution ie check $obj->Msg as shown for either OK or ERR. Simply the explicit step required as alluded to by BrowserUK

2) The module (actually an app wrapped around a lot of modules) is not publicly available either free or for sale, it is in house company code for our webmail system :-)

So, not much of an ad but definitely a solution. Sure I cut and pasted the code and noted why it did not say Mail::POP3Client->new

And?

cheers
