A little curious on this, I see the exact same error in my logs, except it’s only about once a week

> Job exception: SSL\_connect SYSCALL returned=5 errno=0 state=SSLv2/v3 read server hello A

This is the stack trace:

It appears to be related to a the pop3 mailbox (which is gmail). Any idea what this might be?
