POP3 SSL Access in Beta Test

  • Posted on

All our POP3 servers now support access via encrypted connections for e‐mail retrieval.

Your secure connection can use port 995 for SSL access or stick with port 110 and enable STARTTLS.

You will need to accept the SSL certificate presented in order to proceed with your first e‐mail check. Use the "Accept all certificates" option where available.

Remember, this does not make your e-mails much more secure at all. Just your username and password now become fully protected from snooping. Only an end‐to‐end encryption scheme such as PGP or GPG can guarantee e‐mail security.
