Hi, A simple question from a technical learner! I use Gmail's POP3 & SMTP [SSL] servers for three Gmail accounts using Thunderbird as my email client. I would like to know EXACTLY how to set up stunnel so that my anti-virus program ( NOD32) can scan messages being sent and received by SSL on ports 995 & 465. I have Open SSL installed: downloaded but not yet installed stunnel set up. I have tried before to use stunnel, but failed as I keep getting message, as I recall, to the effect that localhost is not recognised. There are detailed explanations on the web for configuring with Spampal, but I don't have, or need Spampal! Thanks, Roger
