Hi, i am trying to retrieve a gmail message based on subject directly 
from the commandlone so withouth any configfile settings

--tls-starttls  --tls-certcheck=off 
--delivery=mbox,"/home/justadirectory"  --status-only --keep --auth=external


mpop: POP3 server sent an empty reply
mpop: error during mail retrieval
