The difference between http and pop3 is that http is generally
transactional, i.e. in a single connection you send a request and the server
responds. At that point, you (or the server) can close the connection
without concern. This is why http is generally considered stateless. POP,
however, requires a series of request/response transactions on a single
connection.

So the first thing you may want to check is whether you are closing the
connection after the first transaction (request/response), such as in
response to a NSStreamEventEndEncountered.
