SSL is the norm if you want any security but it does ultimately depend on the pop2 server and what it supports.

Hi Folks, After having a very frustrating experience with a recent update to our network anti-virus system, I have the following question for those of you with experience operating in organizational network environments: What is the typical connection protocol used for POP/SMTP email? SSL? TLS? Kerberos? Something else? I realize that a lot of places use IMAP or MAPI for email. BUT, for places that use POP/SMTP, do people still frequently set up the accounts without any of those protocols? Thanks.
