Thanks for the suggestion. I was hoping I could slap together something simple and quick but if that is not the case, well, it's not the case. My library has that book so I'll check it out and get started with that.

Thanks again.

Hi,
I've been trying to put together a simple secure pop3 client (just login and check number of available messages) to test out the openSSL library but I can't seem to find any good tutorials or examples that really explains what's going on with certificates.

AFAIK there aren't really any online tutorials for OpenSSL that
explain how to get started.  I would recommend you buy the Open
SSL book "Network Security with OpenSSL".

You really need to understand how SSL works before trying to start
coding anything.  OpenSSL has a /very/ steep learning curve IMHO.

Good Luck!

Mark
