Modem drops when I log into mail (unless I wait 2 or 3 minutes)

4-15-07
Problem seems to have started after Security Update
2007-002 or 003.
If I turn on eMac, dialup the ISP via 56K modem, bring
up Mail 1.3.11 (v622/624) and delay from entering ISP
POP mail server account password (for about 2 or 3 minutes) there is no problem.
Only if I immediately enter the password without waiting
do I lockup the Mac (modem SIGHUP in connection log and
no keyboard or mouse activity). Power reboot needed.

Anyone have a thought? Have pretty much exhausted myself
on this one.
Thanks.

eMac G4 (build 7W98) 125 GHz, 256 MB, 37 GB, Mac OS X (10.3.9), dialup 56K modem
