gmx pop does not work

gmx pop does not work

Most of the time, the GMX POP access does not work. Fetching my mail
takes a while, then it asks me for the password (again and again!).

Sometimes it just works 15 minutes later. Sometimes it only works when I
change the POP server from pop.gmx.de to pop.gmx.net, but often it
doesn't work at all.

Do others have that problem, too? Is it time to change to another provider?

From GNU/Linux "fetchmail -p pop3 -u user_number pop.gmx.net"
still works fine for me (in North America). Both pop.gmx.net
and pop.gmx.de resolve to 213.165.64.22 here.
