I'm using an POP3 Socket to connect to a server (incoming.verizon.net, which works in Mail.app), but I couldn't get anything to happen. When I used MsgBox to debug, I found it was returning an error code. The Language Reference gives a list of error codes that goes from 0 to 6, but the Socket is returning an error code 107. Any clue as to what this means and what I should change? Thanks in advance,


I think that 107 is a port not specified or wrong port, did you set the port to 25?

from the "Complete Socket Readme" (in some release of RB)

"• 107 -- This error means that the port you specified is invalid. This could mean that you entered a port number less than 0, or greater than 65,535. It could also mean that you do not have enough privileges to bind to that port. This happens primarily under OS X if you are not running as root. You can only bind to ports less than 1024 if you have root privileges in OS X."
