Hi felixs,

The OAUTH support was added in version 1.11.0.  Perhaps the POP 
implementation hasn't gotten enough testing.

It looks like if $pop_authenticators is undefined (the default) then POP 
will try OAUTH first.  Whereas IMAP will try OAUTH last.  I think this 
was an oversight, and I will change POP to match IMAP.

However, if $pop_auth_try_all is set (the default), then Mutt *should* 
try all the other mechanisms (sasl, apop, user).  Do you have 
$pop_auth_try_all set?

You could also try setting $pop_authenticators to something like 
"apop:user".
