As mentioned, only used are:

1. TIdPOP31
2. TIdSSLIOHandlerSocketOpenSSL
3. OpenSSL libraries 0.96 (two DLLs), downloaded from Fulgan and copied
to app. directory.

Implicit SSL works correctly, set trough POP3 component. Other SSL's
types return no error - simply freeze the application.

After updating to 10.1.5, application return that cannot load in
directory present OpenSSL libraries. Perhaps is required to copy it to
system32 folder, but that is not prefered currently.

1. Application with Indy 9 - trigger firewall on first Connect request
2. The same application with Indy 10 - trigger firewall when
application starts

This imply that Indy 10 try to access internet during POP3 component
initialization. Just interested of the cause of it.

It frezee the application (upper POP3 example) instead to return an
error. Is there available a simple example of using SASL components
instead of downloading complete 20MB file with 56Kbps DialUp
connection? Onlie documentation page seems to be currently unavailable.
