Username/Password

Determines username and password to use for accessing this server.

Special: APOP authentication for POP3 servers

To use APOP for authentication, the password has to be preceded with "APOP:". If your password "accidentially" starts with "APOP:", you may force USER/PASS-authentication by preceding it with "PASS:".

Examples:

secret Uses USER/PASS with password "secret" (default)

APOP:secret Uses APOP with password "secret".

PASS:APOP:secret Uses USER/PASS with password "APOP:secret".

PASS:PASS:secret Uses USER/PASS with password "PASS:secret".

Server is disabled, i. e. don't contact it

If marked, this server is not contacted any more. May be used to disable a server temporarily.

Use default SOCKS settings for this server

If SOCKS support is enabled, connections to all servers are made through SOCKS by default. To avoid using SOCKS for a specific server (e. g. to access an "intranet" server), this setting has to be unchecked.

Use secure connection (SSL) for this server

If marked, a secure SSL connection is used for this server. If SSL support files are not installed or the server does not support it, connection will fail in this case.
