Right, CE is not SSL compatible

Makes sense, when on DialUp, you are already on their network, so there 
isn't a need to encrypt the email (not that I really see the need to 
force people to do it when NOT on their network, but whatever)

>Would use of Baton Mail cure the problem created by the fact that CE is

As of right now, no. Two problems with using Baton Mail. 1: Baton Mail 
doesn't yet support SSL, 2: Baton Mail currently only handles outbound 
email and you need inbound support.

>Any other ideas?

Um... dump AT&T? Complain to them that it is stupid to require people to 
use SSL (offer it as an option for those that want it, fine, but 
REQUIRE... stupid!). Or change to an email client that supports SSL for 
POP.
