hello Alvin,
I I have some mixed results..., it works, but depending on the lookout! 
version, it just asks first time about server certificate not being signed by 
an authority and after I accept it, thats it, or, it warns me every time that 
the server name and certificate do not match (the users will not like this ! 
-being asked every time, that is-);
the certificate is the default one, which was generated at install, which 
leads me to another question: how do I generate a self signed certificate?
would an apache generated one work? (I did that before and I know how to do 
it)
It doesn't say anywhere in the doc (/usr/share/doc/courier*), I don't have a 
Makefile, nothing!

thanks, dragos

hi ya dragos

i'd try the following...
- leave the one secure pop3 working as is

get another secure pop3d running on a diff server
and see if that other one will fix the pop3 clients
that complains about the CA
( try something generic like netscape which should
( work for all of the windoze boxes 

or upgrade or downgrade their Windoze os and/or outlook

than you can point to management as says tom,dick and harry
can do secure pop3 with their boxes... mary, sally, jane
can do secure pop3 on server2
and micky, donald and bozo need to upgrade their pcs

and besides... if one secure pop3 server dies...they can read
from the other server

- and nope... i hate windoze...and i dont do windoze...

have fun  linuxing
