This was my goal, and I finally seem to have succeeded. Initial reason I didn't do it is that I don't know SSL, but I do know SSH (mostly). Also, it isn't guaranteed that an IMAP client (of which there are not a lot) will be able to do SSL. I don't think Mutt can, for example - but I know KMail does. With the right docs, I seem to have been able to set up TSL (or is it SSL?) on my IMAP server and put it to use. _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
