New Identity Says no mail on server

Been a Pegasus Mail user since 97. I have multiple identities. Two weeks ago I made a new identity. Sending mail works, as I use settings for my default account with my ISP. 

The issue is Pegasus checks my new identity server, and doesn't find any mail. I've played with the settings to no avail. The setting is supposed to be Port 26, yet I don't get the typical error

message when i set it to Port 25.  Pegasus checks, finds no mail, and

that's it. Even when there are over 100 messages sitting on the server.

Both my ISP tech support and the CTO at my new identity have tried to help. Neither could. As one said, POP3 isn't rocket science.

There are no security settings or oddball things about this identity. 

For some reason Pegasus doesn't see any messages.

I'm forced to have this account forwarded to a gmail account. I'm not a Google fan and prefer my Pegasus. 

UPDATE: As I was typing this request, I changed used the wizard to set up the identity. I kept the default timeout and message number settings. and lo and behold -- it has worked! Well, for a few messages, anyway. I removed the gmail forwarding.
