The default 5 minutes may add too much lag for some sites used to mailing list performance.
Unfortunately, this seems to require restarting the server for the change to be noticed - is there any way to avoid that, or otherwise should this be noted in the setting text?
Ideally it would be a menu selection to select POP3, POP3S, and potentially other future protocols like IMAP if desired, but I didn't want to deal with data migration at this point. And then I was going to have a checkbox for "Secure" (on by default, obviously), but that was very hard to word as to how it was different given everything else referred to pop3s and I couldn't change that either. So I settled on a preference:
pop3s_polling_insecure: "Poll using plain text POP3 without SSL"
Off by default.
This makes it very clear that as to what turning on that checkbox will be, and by calling it "insecure" makes sure people will think twice before turning it on.
I have not attempted to do any of the translations of the preference, I'm ot sure how you handle that.
- Replace implicit return code-system in Email::Receiver with proper exception system
- Update tests to check for exceptions instead
- Test the PollMailbox for expected failures
- Add proper email-handling of problematic emails
