One of reasons I purchased spamcop service was the SSL capability. 
Spamcop is my main mail now and all secure communication is there. I 
also use advanced mail clients, forgetting some of "nifty" HTML 
rendering etc for more security. Like Eudora Pro for instance.

Using non SSL on cell phone imap/pop3 while your mail host provides 
that capability is not a good idea. Especially on GPRS. Its exactly the 
3rd option on mailbox setup of that tiny PDA so be sure its not some 
"fantasy" option.

I don't tell the wonders of SSL etc, I have the capability, I want to 
use it, the reasons can be too complicated. Lets say, I am close to 
some cell phone admin level people etc and know how amazingly insecure 
gprs (2.5 G) can be.

Let me say, seeing Yahoo doesn't even offer SSL (forget about IMAP etc) 
was a plain shock for me.

About the nokia.com.tr, oh they are good translators, nothing else ;) 
Thanks anyway but already know to ask them.

Also no wonder why Equifax having such root not included problems on 
many platforms/programs since they didn't even care to answer my single 
mail. Now, that was a polite and highly technical mail explaining all 
details, firmware etc.
