When AuthType is atUserPass, the POP3 USER and PASS commands are used with the Username and Password properties to perform authentication for the POP3 client connection.
When AuthType is atSASL, the SASLMechanisms.LoginSASL method is used to perform authentication for the Capabilities supported on the connection to the server.
The default value for AuthType is DEF_ATYPE, as assigned in the Create constructor.
