I suspect you'll need to do session logging e.g.

        protocol pop3 {
                ...
                rawlog_dir = /writable/logdir/%u
        }

then

        mkdir /writable/logdir/user
        chmod 0777 /writable/logdir/user

to obtain session transcripts of what server/client are doing.

I don't see any obvious errors from the logs that indicate any failure.
I do see the INBOX is rather large so maybe a timeout is involved.
