Hi,

What are the differences between ssh and ssl?  From perusing the RFCs/drafts
they appear to be similar in functionality.  If my goal was to secure
external access (from Windows laptops) to POP3 servers would I prefer one
over the other? Are there implementations of both available??

Thanks,

Greg
