Those two statements are contradictory.  The first says it works, the second
says it doesn't.  It appears you killed the telnet session as soon as the
Dovecot POP daemon responded.  If you had attempted to login and read a message,
the responses would have helped both you, and us, in troubleshooting your
problem.  At this point you've not provided us enough information to do anything
but guess and speculate.  Most people's time is more valuable than that.

So, my recommendation is to test more thoroughly via telnet and copy/paste any
errors.  Use this as a guide:
