Interestingly, the NOOP / OK Success lines stopped after I sent the
above message just before 9 am. 

Yes, the log file is shared. I have four accounts:

	GMX (used for listservs like this one) POP3
	Gmail university account (IMAP4)
	Gmail (the account under discussion here) POP3
	Comcast (being phased out) POP3

The Comcast account is going away because I changed ISPs, replaced by
the GMX account. It is no longer in the Get All list.

The Gmail university account is not set to query the server except when
I click on Get All.
