Mail.app help
My university email is becoming more "secure" (yea right, it's microsoft) requiring for the webmail, a security certificate. The instructions on reconfiguring an email client say that I have to turn on SSL, but it only gives instructions for Entourage and Eudora. How do I do this with mail.app?
I still believe in liberalism today as much as I ever did, but, oh, there was a happy time when I believed in liberals.

Re: Mail.app help
From Mail help:
Getting mail over a secured connection:
If your mail provider supports it, you can connect to the mail server using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) for increased security.
Choose Preferences from the Mail menu, then click Accounts. Select an account and click Edit, then click the Advanced tab. Check the option to use SSL. You can change the port number, but do so only if instructed by your network administrator.
