start(address, port = nil, account = nil, password = nil, isapop = false) public

Creates a new POP3 object and open the connection. Equivalent to 

  Net::POP3.new(address, port, isapop).start(account, password)

If block is provided, yields the newly-opened POP3 object to it, and automatically closes it at the end of the session.

Example

   Net::POP3.start(addr, port, account, password) do |pop|
     pop.each_mail do |m|
       file.write m.pop
       m.delete
     end
   end
