Depending on why you need to connect to the pop server I think your only good choices are Pantomime or the built in apple message framework.

I didn't think the apple NSMailDelivery class was robust enough, so I've used the Pantomime framework. If you need help sending messages I can give you sample code, but that's all I know (my app only sends :) ). However, the developer to pantomime was very helpful when I was in the same position as you  he gave me the sample code I needed. If your app needs to send emails you should email him and I'll bet he'll give you the sample code you need.

Ok. Well NSURL won't work, or at least I can't make it work. And I cannot figure out NSConnection. Are there any examples for using NSConnection?

Looking at the class descriptions for NSURL and NSConnection, neither one looks appropriate for connecting to a mail server. You need a socket - a CFSocket, or one of the many Cocoa wrappers for CFSocket that are out there - AsyncSocket, AGSocket, and SmallSockets are three that I have in my developer resources folder, along with Pantomime.
