my code:

$pop3=new pop3_class;
$pop3->hostname="pop.gmail.com"; */
$pop3->port=995;
$pop3->tls=1;

but the test script complains:
Connecting to localhost ...
Error: 111 could not connect to the host "localhost": Connection refused

I have no idea where it gets "localhost" as it is not in the test program or the class.

help

It is hard to tell without seeing the whole script. Maybe you are resetting the hostname variable to localhost elsewhere before opening the connection.

AFAIK, I made no changes to the test script other than to fill in the server, user and password

This is odd because the error message that you shown uses the hostname variable and it shows localhost and not pop.gmail.com . Are you sure you did not changed it inadvertently?

YOu are correct - I discovered that the file on the server was out of syncronization with the file I edited.
I will try again
