I'm not sure if I am missing something here... but are you saying that if
the programmer specifies SSL and they attempt to do the following:

curl_easy_perform("pop3://mail.domain.com"); // List messages
curl_easy_perform("pop3://mail.domain.com/1"); // Retr message 1
curl_easy_perform("pop3://mail.domain.com/2"); // Retr message 2

.. then you would expect the second and third requests to use their own
connections when connections are upgraded using TLS?

Cheers

Steve
