I have an account (my own) that will not log in POP3. It works fine through the web interface, and can even send email through the SMTP server using Outlook and the identical credentials (literally, i.e., SMTP is set to use the POP3 login credential). But, attempts to log in through POP3 are rejected. All other POP3 users are able to log in (including other accounts in the same copy of Outlook on the same client machine).
Here is a snip of my log files showing the unsuccessful login attempt:
