I guess it's only a long time until the first mail is retrieved, the
second comes much faster in?

You problem is commonly a DNS problem. If you can answer the above
question with yes then it is sure. So check your DNS settings, at least
a proper setup of your /etc/hosts file. Because of lack of detailed
information about your network situation - like where the POP3 server
resides and how your mail client is connected to it - I can not give you
a more describtive answer.
