Agent works over SSL by using stunnel (http://www.stunnel.org).
After downloading and installing stunnel, edit the
stunnel.conf file as follows:
- client = yes
- [pop3]
- accept = localhost:110
- connect = mail.cotse.net:995
- [smtp]
- accept = localhost:25
- connect = www.cotse.net:465
Go back into the Options --> User and System
settings in Forte Agent and Install stunnel as a Win32
service using "stunnel -install" and start it up. Works
beautifully.
The only other thing is to specify "localhost" as the
SMTP and POP server in the mail client and otherwise
configure the client as you would using the equivalent
non-SSL services. This should work to SSL-enable any mail
client and stunnel is portable to *nix systems.
