Thanks for the replies on this.  Still having the same problem.  To recap:
Advanced, Ports set to 587 for SMTP and 995 for POP
SSL/TLS setting -POP - use SSL/TLS and SMTP - Use STARTTLS
command to start encrypted session, no entries in Client Certificates,
Automatically accept valid SSL/TLS certificates checked and Use
non-blocking SSL/TLS not checked

Confirmed by signing in in browser that user name/password are correct, in
Claws have double checked the used name and password, have deleted and
retyped password. also confirmed that account is set to use less secure app
and POP is enabled.  Account shows that one
