Prove it.
In fact, there is obviously plenty of confusion about it (based on just
a few minutes of googling), but, I'm inclined to agree with you on this
point.
NONE
SSL if available
SSL Always
TLS if available
TLS Always
pfffffff
SSL if available: use port 993 if available, but you may use 143 unecnrypted
SSL Always: use always port 993
TLS if available: use STARTLS on 143 if available, but if not use no encryption
TLS Always: use always STARTTLS on 143
pffffffffff yourself - in fact, I just visually confirmed...
The native Android mail shows these choices:
None
SSL
SSL (Accept all certificates)
TLS
TLS (Accept all certificates)
and the K-9 mail app shows these:
None
SSL (if available)
SSL (always)
TLS (if available)
TLS (always)
And again, the port is specified in its own box, so is *not* tied to one
of these choices.
If memory serves, the iPhone is similar (the port is totally separate
from the security type).
