Hi Stacey,
With regard to your query about whether or not the BrailleNote and company
support POP3 authentication:
I'm not sure what this really means since all POP3 services require
authentication before you can retrieve mail. So, in the respect that you
must authenticate to fetch your mail, BrailleNote supports the feature by
compunction, using only plaintext logins (no APOP, RFC1939, no SSL).
However, you might have really been asking about POP-Before-SMTP, in which
the POP3 service authentication is used, for a given amount of time, to
inform the SMTP service of the legitimacy of a connection made to it for
relaying or submission. If this is what you refer to, then simply
checking your mail before sending it is usually sufficient as a
workaround, though PulseData could make sure this feature was supported by
always guaranteeing that mail was checked before being sent in the case of
a full mail update, or else a null POP3 login occurs (a login in which
only a quit command is sent immediately following successful login) just
prior to a submission.
Cheers,
Sabahattin
