\_ When you add a mail server, you need to configure it
and select the protocol as imaps instead of imap or
pop.
\_ ifigured that... but when I "add" a mail server,
i don't see an option for pops or imaps. I
am using netscape 4.77 . what am i doing wrong?
did I download the wrong version?
\_ You need to edit the mail server and then use
the pull down menu in the little dialog that
pops up.
\_ Add... Server Type: IMAP Tab at the top: IMAP, check the
box "Use secure connection (SSL)"
\_ Say I have a laptop I travel with. Can I set up ssh on my
workstation to forward to the work pop server? I would like
the connection over the Internet to be encrypted but it is
ok if the connection from my workstation to the pop server
over my work LAN is not encrypted.
\_ Yes, with port forwarding. -tom
\_ ssh username@myworkstation -L 143:popserver:143
of course, 143 is a privileged port so you need to
be root.
\_ 143 for IMAP, 110 for pop3
\_ Sorry, I was just used to using IMAP. |
