Sorry, small (or was that big) typo? Since OBSD3.2 we lost OpenWebMail, and I do not think its developers (Perl?) were too into the SUID protocol since. I then had https://...OpenWebMail.. Recently I've been forced into being an outsider in my own domain, so I reeealy need secure communications, and POP3 does not quite cut it. MK      |

You certainly mean APOP which use crypted password for authentification. mips |

Mozilla also supports the STARTTLS and STLS extensions for in-band SSL negotiation of IMAP and POP3, respectively. Though, I don't think popa3d supports in-band negotiation; uw-imap does. KMail and Evolution also support IMAP and POP3 with SSL in one or both forms. Mutt support SSL for IMAP and POP3 (not in-band, as far as I know). Pine might support SSL. |

I'll look into it and the version for the upcoming Obsd3.5 Thanks. |

If I know my RFC's and behaviour.. ssh is the only one that came with good security and encryption. Most mainstream communication is done clear-text. HTTPS secure SMTP extension SHA1 (which is part of OpenSSH, among others) (information found from rfc-editor.org and searching all fields for 'secure') POP3 security is not a RFC, and pop3ad is built strictly for RFC compliance... hence, no security. I find most nonstandard protocols are made by big-name companies that try to define standards when they are not standard-compliant themself. > MK --TJ |

RFC 2595 Section 4 defines the STLS extension for POP3. I wonder how difficult it would be to patch this into popa3d. *looks around* |

Is this a ports only deal? I'm not immediately geared for ports on this laptop. I'll have to check later, unless someone has a ready answer TIA. MK |
