Re: [cobalt-users] Stunnel and IMAPS

[Jerry Kemp <cobalt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Tunnel's are fun and all if you are working in a restricted environment 
and have found that they work well for imap, pop3 & http but I have 
found that imap over ssl (993/tcp) is a lot more pain free and you 
don't have to worry weather the tunnel has died or not.

YMMV, Good Luck,
