Description:
------------
In the PEAR manual following declaration is specified:
  
boolean Net_POP3::login (string $user string $pass boolean $apop)

Am I right, that the last parameter $apop is not of type boolean, but
of type "boolean or string"? By looking into the source code and
following the parameter over serval function-calls, one can find a
switch (in function _cmdAuthenticate) between the strings 'DIGEST-MD5',
'CRAM-MD5', 
'APOP', 'PLAIN' , 'LOGIN', 'USER' or alternativly a false - value for
this parameter.

following code gives not the result as 
expected according to the documentation:
$pop3->login($user, $pass,true);

this would be the correct call:
$pop3->login($user, $pass,"APOP");

Another thing:
Since the last(?) update of the Net_POP3 class-documentation there are
the wrong classnames (Net_Ping instead of Net_POP3) given on the
overview page (
Net_Ping::Net_POP3() and so on)




Reproduce code:
