Subject: Would someone with CVS commit access please add this?
Message-ID: <5.1.0.14.0.20020221181733.029b4350@mail.servicemail123.com>

Hello,

I've been using the following bit of code successfully for a year now, to add support for using a colon as a field separator.

I'd like for it to be committed to the CVS tree so that I won't have to keep patching it by hand.

Would someone please commit it to CVS?

I don't know how to make a patch, if someone cares to tell me how I'll send it along.

Thanks.

Subject: One more try: Can anyone give me a hand with TLS?
Message-ID: <5.1.0.14.0.20020223123201.040cbe40@mail.servicemail123.com>

Hey,
I sent this yesterday but it appears that it never made it to the list. Please excuse the duplicates.

Hello,

I am setting up another pop3 server and finding TLS rather interesting, I'm considering implementing it this time.

However, I don't know anything about TLS and can't seem to find much information on it.

If anyone has an idea what is required to use it, I would greatly appreciate hearing from you, either on list or off, as you prefer. 

Thanks!
