I use this module a lot and it always does this. If you RTFM that comes with Mail::POP3Client - that's the thing called README - you will find the following bit no more than half a dozen lines from the top: 

HOW DO I INSTALL/TEST IT?

To install Mail::POP3Client:

% perl Makefile.PL
% make
% make test
% make install

NOTE: if you want to test against a real mailbox, set the environment
variable POPTESTACCOUNT to some POP3 account in the following format:
user:password:host.

% export POPTESTACCOUNT=jsmith:secret:pop3.my.do.main
% make test

[download]

What it does not explicity say is that if you dont set POPTESTACCOUNT it will skip tests.

Don't worry this is a vanilla Perl module. Just install it. If you can use it in a Perl script (it was installed) and if you have an RFC compliant POP server it will work just fine.

It's called README for a reason. Why does nobody ever bother to READIT?
