POP3 Basic target type
The POP3 Basic check makes connection socket to your POP3 server (by default on port 110) and waits for positive reply "+OK" message as defined in RFC 1939.
If the POP3 server doesn't reply with valid welcome message, the check is marked as Bad with "Error in response" status.
