The Offspring, that the sort of thing you're looking for?
Male Bonding are on 6 music catching my ear, sounds like your sort of thing?
I was going to say Yellowcard, but you're clearly ahead of me.
3 doors down, 3 days grace, breaking benjamin, the killers, goo goo dolls, brand new. Just a few that come to mind, they're not all pop punk, but close.
The Hives
There's pop and there's punk. Never the twain & all that
But you could try The Undertones or The Buzzcocks
Some of the Millencolin stuff might be up your street...(not 'pop' though)
Listened to most of that stuff before, will be diggin it out again for a trip down memory lane
got to love Spotify!
Paramore are on Radio 1 a lot at the mo, i'm not a big fan but i like the fact they're getting airplay. Do you know The Sounds and The Caesars?

Diesel Boy
I thought it was Godwins Law, and that was about nazi analogies?
Errr yeah I was wondering that too. Not many people heard of Mr T Experience, they are punk pop ish, not to everyones tastes but gotta be worth a try. One of their songs is my song to my wife - romantic!!!
Paramore = emo, surely??
old skool pop punk - Tango in Mono by the Expressos.

Well whatever the label, it's a jolly old toon
I'd say paramore are punk, not emo.
The Vandals (look what I almost stepped in is a flippin classic)
Nofx
Beatsteaks
Hives
Weezer (pop, anyway)

There's pop and there's punk. Never the twain & all that
You obviously forgot Green Day there John
Rival Schools used to be good at that sort of thing. Dunno if they still are.
The Godfathers for old stuff.
The Starting Line
Homegrown
Blink182
Boxcar Racer
New Found Glory
Everclear

For some interesting covers try "Punk Goes Pop" series and "Punk Goes Crunk". Not all done by Pop-punk bands but there are a couple on there.
For everyone who is recommending NOFX

Check out their other stuff as well, its brilliant.
In a slightly different vein...
....not pop but folk punk-check the Bad Shepherds (Ade Edmondson)
Great live-saw them a couple of weeks back and touring for most of the year.Back here (Swansea) in October
The Sounds
(for something at the swedish, electro-pop end of pop-punk)
The Rezillos
Try something with umpf
Slayer
Rammstein
Iron Maiden
Jimi Hendrix
Pop and punk should not be together in the the same sentence.

In your opinion, other opinions are available. Labelling music is a slippery slope anyway.
I'm 50 and I've seen You me at six, had a good beat to it.
The definition of 'pop punk' is slightly wide at times. To me current pop punk bands are like the following.
USA
Dear Landlord
New Bruises
Off With Their Heads
Iron Chic
UK
The Dauntless Elite
The Amistad
Pudge
This, stream of a 4 way split
...although from what you've put in the OP I guess you may be looking for something a little more 'melodic'/pop at times.
ctznsmith has very similar ideas to me. Off With Their Heads are one of my favourite live bands. Although the new LP's a bit ropey. I'd add (not all new, and some are more pop than punk / vice versa)
Broadway Calls
(some) Alkaline Trio
Latterman (especially if you like Iron Chic ;))
The Riot Before
Nothington
Joe 90
Vanilla Pod (but DON'T go see them live!)
The Copyrights
Weezer
Hot Water Music
The Weakerthans
Bangers
Beezewax
The Ataris
Gunmoll
Jawbreaker
(early) Rise Against
This is my Fist
The Lawrence Arms
New End Original (or indeed anything to do with Jonah Matranga)
The Get Up Kids
Ted Leo and the Pharmacists
And I'll reiterate NOFX. Has anyone mentioned Green Day before they turned atrocious? I could go on for hours...
Green Day are ok but I've never bought any of their stuff. Nor downloaded for free either
I'm a bit old school when it comes to punk I'm afraid.
UK:
The Damned
Sex Pistols
The Clash
etc
USA:
Dead Kennedys
Black Flag
etc
Anything commercially viable since about 1982 isn't punk in any way shape or form.
It's all just rock music
IMHO of course
Saw 2 punk bands in the old style last night; not impressed, The Clash did it better
Transvision Vamp?
Wendy James! Mmmmmm.....
US Bombs
Blanks77
Bleed
The Freeze
Municipal Waste
captain Everything
Cock sparrow
And of course NOFX
Alkaline Trio. Newer stuff is OK but older is where it's at - Goddamnit etc.
