Yeah, that's the direction I'm leaning in as well. Does performance suffer at all from the encryption? I'm in the process of setting up OpenSSL but haven't got very far yet. That's my one big concern. Ideally, I'd like to set an "allowplaintextnotincludingjayshomenetworkwhichofcourseissecurefrompacketsni fferssincehelivesalone: no" option in imapd.conf. Jay
