I'm trying 22.1.90, and for comparison 22.1.1.

I start emacs using -no-init-file, then run
(prog1
  (setenv "MAILHOST" "sewinexch00.insightful.com")  ; 7/10/06
  (setq rmail-primary-inbox-list '("po:timh") 
  	rmail-pop-password-required t)
)
before M-x rmail
On both systems it asks for my POP Password, and on 22.1.1 proceeds
to read the mail from the server into my RMAIL file.  On 22.1.90
I get a message
	Wrong type argument: stringp, nil

The *Messages* buffer contains:
Loading rmail...done
Counting messages...done
Getting mail from the remote server ...
apply: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil


If I try M-x rmail again, I get the same message.

From the message I'd guess that a password is being set as nil instead
of string.
rmail-encoded-remote-password is a string
rmail-pop-password is nil
rmail-remote-password is nil


If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
d:/emacs/emacs-22.1.90/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
