bold textAfter years of trouble free use, yesterday at noon my connection to my university account via POP3 stopped working. It worked fine a 10:48 AM, and did not at 12:50 PM. I get through the password to my university account, and DUO authentication, but then it just freezes on Host Contacted, sending login information. Nothing was changed on my end, and the University help desk cannot figure it out.
