Hi Peter,

 
YC>> In Mozilla I checked the box "Use secure connection(SSL)"  :-)
YC>> In Netscape 6.2 I checked the same options in Server Settings section

PP> OK. So Mozilla and Nutscrape use SSL. That's an option for the
PP> _connection_, not for authentication.
PP> While The Bat! 1.53 seems to be set up using 'MD5-APOP' which is an option
PP> for authentication and not connection.
PP> So two issues are mixed up here ... :-/

You are right for this subject. I mixed it


YC>> I installed the qmail-vpopmail with "POP3 Server with APOP and SSL support"

PP> That's fine. The problem is:
PP> There is no 'qmail-vpopmail'. This are two different, co-working,
PP> softwares.
PP> The next thing is: neither qmail nor vpopmail does support SSL 'from
PP> scratch' so this must be either an 'stunnel'-based installation or a
PP> patches qmail version -> what patch (incl. qmail-version and patch-version)
PP> did you (the vendor) apply?
PP> The next is: vpopmail is capable of APOP, AFAIK. But what vpopmail-version
PP> are you using? 5.2? 5.3.x (devel branch)?
PP> If you're using and older vpopmail than 5.2: is this user created as 'APOP'
PP> user?
When using >>=5.2: is 'clear-passwd' enabled? IIRC APOP relies on that.

PP> I'd suggest the first step you take is installing The Bat! 1.54, available
PP> from
PP> http://www.ritlabs.com/the_bat/

PP> and enable SSL with normal POP3-authentication in The Bat!. This should be
PP> the same Mozilla & Nutscrape are currently set up at your side.
PP> This way your password will be SSL-encrypted when transferred to the server
PP> and therefore be secure even if it's not extra encrypted by any
PP> MD5-algorithm.

This is the story: :-)
I installed a mail server based http://shupp.org/toaster/
A small text from the document

*******************************
Qmail SMTP Mail Server with SMTP-AUTH (Plain, CRAM-MD5), TLS (SSL) support, and 
optional Virus Scanner.
POP3 Server with APOP and SSL support
IMAP Server with TLS (SSL) support
WebMail Server
Quota Support (usage viewable by webmail)
Autoresponder
Mailing Lists
Web-Based Email Administration
*******************************

I installed the all the necessary software (also stunnel and openssl)
I only want that, usernames and password dont captured during the
reading mail.


Here is the problem:
Most of my users use Netscape mail client and they have no problem with
POP3 with SSL. But I like TB :-) and want the same security with the
others :-)

I changed the connection type to "Secure the dedicated port (TLS)"
(port chaged 995 automaticly) that you sad me
But it did not work :-(
Here is my log:
