Hmmm.. That should work.  What are you using for your stunnel.pem
cert?  If it's singed by a regular CA then it should work fine.  If
it's self-signed some clients may reject it.  Can you try using a
different mail client - like Netscape or Evolution or pine or mutt -
which should show if the problem is with OE or with your
stunnel+qpopper setup.

You could also try an alternative pop3s server -- there is the one
included with the mail/uw-imap software, for instance, although you
should make sure to compile the port with WITH_SSL_AND_PLAINTEXT=yes
if you want both encrypted and plaintext servers, or I've heard some
very good things about mail/dovecot.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
