Can't Receive POP Mail

If Mail displays an error message every time it tries to connect to a POP account, make sure that no other device (a computer or another mobile device) is trying to connect to the same account at the same time. (Unlike IMAP, some POP accounts don't support multiple concurrent connections—or even connections from multiple devices within a short period of time.)
