In Core 2.5 APOP is transparent. REBOL automatically uses it if the POP server
indicates that it supports it.
Unfortunately after releasing Core 2.5 we found out that there are some POP
servers out there which indicate that they support APOP even if they do not,
breaking REBOL's POP implementation, requiring a patch for some users.
Because of that in View 1.2 APOP is no longer transparent. You need to manually
enable it by putting
system/schemes/pop/algorithm: 'apop
into your user.r
