ParM will show simular (bad) behaviour when started from WB, so start if from CLI whenever possible.
XPK packing is supported directly in THOR, and this is more efficient than running THOR on a partition with XPK. However, there seem to be problems when using RAKE as compressior, but later NUKE versions has been tested and works fine. If you have a problem with RAKE or any other methods, NUKE is generally a good alternative.

These sites might contain fixes, ARexx scripts etc. not released on Aminet.
You are trying to get mail from a server you do not have an account on.
You have some special characters like *#? etc. in the password. Due to the way passwords are sent to GetTCP from ConnectTHOR, some of these special characters might be interpreted by AmigaDOS and changed. For instance, if you have a password with a '*' character in, make sure you pass in an extra '*'. Eg: "pass*word" becomes "pass**word".
You have a password longer than 8 characters. Many POP servers do not accept passwords on more than 8 characters.
