RE: Safest Sendmail Config for relaying.

Does this just use the same account name and password as used for the POP3
account. Looking at M$ Outlook, they dont have a field where you can enter
in a password and account in for POP3. However, they do support SSL.

Would it be as simple as setting up SSL on my computer?? (to use SSL?) or is
there a setting i have to config in sendmail to read/talk SSL?

Thanx
Adam W.
