Thanks Nate.
SM is currently running on the IMAP server. But if I connect to SM from
across the Internet (not on the local network), then isn't my login
information sent in plain text ?

I'm not familiar with stunnel. I'll check 'man stunnel'. Any links you
might have would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike
