"never" should work. I use Eudora (and wish to ^H^H^H a lot that I
didn't) in my business network on a server that does STARTTLS and SSL over
alternate ports for POP, IMAP, and SMTP. Set the option to "never" for
both sending mail, and receiving mail, and it shouldn't bother you any
more.
When you *want* to use encrypted email, then you'll want to create
certificates whose CN matches your hostname (you can use openssl's
s_client to verify that it does), and possibly have them signed by
Verisign or another recognized CA. Eudora is friggin' awful about
rejecting certificates that are "imperfect".
