The simplest solution is to keep using your POP3 server and install stunnel=
 to
create an SSL tunnel between the mail client and the POP server.

On the server side:
- Install stunnel from ports (security/stunnel)
- Create the certificate (check the docs!)
- Create the start up script stunnel.sh (from stunnel.sh.sample):

=2E..
   start)
      ${STUNNEL} -d ${LISTEN_HOST}:spop3 -r ${REMOTE_HOST}:pop3 -p /usr/loc=
al/etc/spop3.st unnel.pem
      ;;
=2E..

where ${LISTEN_HOST} is the IP address where SPOP3 service is accepting
connection and ${REMOTE_HOST} is the IP address of your POP3 server.

On the client side:
- Make sure that the checkbox "Use SSL/TLS blah blah..." (I don't remember =
the
exact label!) is checked in the mail account options.

That's all! For a quick start see:
