Il pratica il client ha chiuso la connessione senza inviare il comando QUIT al server POP3.What does "Socket closed" log message mean?
Basically, this means that the POP3 session was not properly closed.
Probably the POP3 client did not send a QUIT command. This is common
with Outlook and Outlook Express. A similar message from another POP3
server is: "-ERR POP EOF or I/O Error".
