Replacing 'imaps' with 'pop' will enable POP3. Of course you no longer need the IMAP specific options if you're using POP3:
# Automatically log in to this mailbox at startup
set spoolfile="pop://email@testing.me.uk@testing.me.uk.mail.aa.net.uk/"
# Set INBOX ('=' folder) at startup
# Define the = shortcut, and the entry point for the folder browser (c?)
set folder="pop://email@testing.me.uk@testing.me.uk.mail.aa.net.uk/"
