Hello, on 5 Nov I received an email from my provider telekom.de informing me that I use an insecure connection for my emails and that from start of 2014 on ssl is required. For my emails I use sendmail and getmail (and mutt/vi) so I think ssl should be supported. I changed the type from SimplePOP3Retriever to SimplePOP3SSLRetriever in my $HOME/.getmail/getmailrc: | [retriever] | type = SimplePOP3SSLRetriever | server = popmail.t-online.de | username = ... | password = ... but with this I get only | getmailrc: socket error ([Errno 61] Connection refused) I described this in a detailed email to telekom.de (twice) but didn't get any answer. Can anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong or explain to me what I should do instead. thanks in advance Johannes-Maria
