Ok, so now I get why nothing is running on 465. I still don't have it working yet, but I haven't had time to try anything today. When I do get this working, I'll put together a crude mini-howto thing, because this is really cool. It blows the minds of windows-types that I can read my mail over ssl-links via mozilla-mail, which is a very slick looking client. (but then I don't reply to my mail until they look the other way, because currently I have to ssh in to use mutt to reply.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
