Secure your webmail

Post by Dr.Flay »

This is copied from my personal blog
Webmail settings/configuration

For use in a normal/standard email program/client/phone app.
"IMAP" is more secure and flexible than "POP3", so try IMAP first.

After you have setup your software, you will be able to claim a free SSL security certificate, or install PGP key based encryption.
