Barring a POP server written in Squeak, the best solution to this would
seem to be running APOP over an in-memory pipe instead of a socket, and
testing that the right requests are being sent.  I don't know if there
is a handy in-memory pipe floating around in Squeak, but it sure would
be handy for testing network code.
