my <1 cent> is that I use plaintext passwords and don't like the idea that their password is transmitted whenever they're sending mail. I only use POP3S/IMAPS. I messed around with SMTPS but that was back in my totally newbie days (now I'm a newbie+) and never got it working so I just moved onto the pop-before-smtp idea.
If you could let me in on the workings or SMTPS and SMTP AUTH I'd be willing to give it a try again.
