whoops. You're misunderstanding something completely here.
EMails are ALWAYS sent in an unsecure way (at least when V3 sends them).
Form data is normally sent in an unsecure way, too, EXCEPT you are posting
them on a SECURE SERVER, which means that the server has "turned on"
SSL-encryption. You can determine wether your data is encrypted by looking
at the transfer method within the URL: If it's "https://", voyager makes
use of SSL and encrypts your data, if it's "http://" or "ftp:", it doesn't
and it CAN'T.
Usage of SSL (regardless of Voyager's builtin SSL or MiamiSSL) depends on
the server you are connected to.
BTW, you can also see wether your connection is secure by looking at the
small status button in the left lower corner of V's window.
I recommend disabling the "unsecure data blabla..." requester.
