Ok... made some progress.. The next question would be, how does one setp SASL- and even more importantly, would OE use this auth method?
Regarding SSL: there appears to be no way to import SSL certificates into IE, or OE on the macintosh at this time. iCab is my primary browser, which can deal with the apache-ssl that is running on the same server, yet IE cannot. thanks again dylan on 03.2.1 11:47 AM, Brian Candler at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > On Sat, Feb 01, 2003 at 11:31:30AM -0800, dylan wrote: >> regarding APOP: i am currently running an email server on a mac here at >> home, with the APOP option enabled- when i check my mail on that server with >> OE 5.06, i MUST use the option "Always Use Secure Password".
