For SMTP auth and SSL, plus SSL encrypted pop3, do the following:

 Click Here to install the Certificate

  Click: open

 Click:  Install Certificate

 Click:  Next

 Click:  Place all certificates in the following store

 Click:   Browse

 Click:   Trusted Root Certification Authorities

 Click:   OK

 Click:  Next, Finish, OK, Done

 

 Now just reconfigure the mail client ,   These instructions are for    Outlook Express Version 6,    Other versions may vary.

Click  Tools,   then  Accounts,  then Select the preferred mail account and select properties

Under the servers tab:  Set the outgoing  and incoming servers to    mail.pcsok.com
or you will get a complaint from your mail client.
and select    My server requires authentication
Apply the settings

 

 

Under the Advanced tab:    

Select:   this server requires a secure connection  (SSL)  
for both outgoing & incoming servers, 
the outgoing server port needs to be changed from port 25 to port 465.
The  incoming port should change automatically to port 995 which is correct
Apply the settings.




Close the mail client and reopen it and it is good to go.  When the client sends mail it will be SSL encrypted.  The pop3 retrieval on port 995 will also be SSL encrypted,  And the Cert will allow you to roam with your laptop and not have to change mail settings to accommodate the different networks that you may encounter when traveling,  As long as you have a connection to the Internet.
