	to better test, disable the 110 port for all except for
	localhost (in hosts.allow/.deny)
	this way you can see if its getting a SSL connection in
	port 110 or if the stunnel is messing something

	my tip is that both clients are trying to connect with ssl
	to the 110 port, when the correct port for pop3 ssl connection
	is 995

	there is a sylpheed for win32 too
	search google for "sylpheed win32" and should be the both 2 top

	again, try to disable the normal 110 port for other than
	localhost, this is a good way to test with connection it
	used

	also, test try to do a telnet server 995 and see of you 
	can connect (you will not any thing usefull from there,
	just for testing the connection)

	also in you original config you setup the popa3d client
	in the pop3s tunnel, remove it, the new stunnel only need 
	the config i post, source port and destination port, nothing
	else, when you already have the normal service running in the
	server

	good luck
