If so, can you point me to the documentation? Has somebody mentioned "mew"? (http://www.mew.org/ ) I think it does everything "out of the box", including SMTP on SSL with or without authentication for sending email; and IMAP and POP on SSL for receiving email. For example, http://www.mew.org/release/info/mew_78.html.en#SEC78 How much of the functionality works "out of the box" debends on how your "box" is configured "out of the box". :-) I've been using mew for a long time. I remember that switching from plain SMTP to authenticated SMTP required only a couple of lines in mew's configuration file, ~/.mew.el . Ryo
