Background
Most ISPs use POP as a way for their clients to read email from accross the internet. The POP protocol sends passwords in cleartext which can be sniffed by a third party. The protocol also has inherent features that make it insecure. We will not be using POP to read email.

We have opted to use Secure POP (pop3s) and Secure Mail Transfer (smtps). This allows a user to send and read email between the client and server machines and ensures that the entire transaction is encrypted. This is similar to online banking.
