Having read the documentation on UW imap server I understand that I
need to purchase an SSL certificate to use SSL build of the server.

Is there any way I can implement secure authentication mechanism (just
encrypted username and passwords) without having to buy the
certificate?  If yes, will this mechanism be supported by popular
MS-based mail readers?

Any advice greately appreciated,
