Reporter, please read the bug writing guidelines at
http://www.mozilla.org/quality/bug-writing-guidelines.html to learn what
information is required in a request for enhancement. For this one we would like
more information :
- A *precise* description of the feature required. "missing pops" doesn't help.
- What would require such a change, i.e. do you think it is a huge task, or is
it trivial.
- Who should fix this? PSM (the ssl software), or the POP folks?
- Is there any known implementation of SSL POP? Do you know of any software that
has this feature?
Thank you for your help!
Fabian.

SSL is now implemented, and you didn't describe any problem in the bugreport.
Marking INVALID.

If you have problems with the current SSL implementation, then please file a new
bug about that with a better description, reproducable steps and so on..

Thanks for using Mozilla!

Opened bug 68516 with a clearer description of this problem and without all the
spam that's happened here.  Verifying invalid.  Reporter, I've cced you on bug
68516, since I presume you want to follow the progress of this...
