Section 7 says:
S: +OK POP3 server ready <[email protected]> C: APOP rg c4c9334bac560ecc979e58001b3e22fb
It should say:
S: +OK POP3 server ready <[email protected]> C: APOP rg 8f5de26536bc248ba202a9ca612e71bd
Notes:
If the password for user "rg" is "secret" as in the plain PASS example before this APOP example, then
MD5("<[email protected]>secret") should be as shown in the corrected text.
The original text is a modification of the APOP example in RFC 1939, and
MD5("<[email protected]>tanstaaf") almost certainly will not match any plausible
MD5("<[email protected]>"||password).
