SSL is a security option for use
with the UGAMail system, and we encourage you to use SSL whenever possible.
However, problems are being reported with inbound SSL (most notably when
automatically copying mail to the Sent Folder). If you experience any
problems when sending mail, try disabling the inbound SSL setting.

If you would like to read your UGAMail email mail with PC Pine, you
will need to follow these instructions to configure it properly.
Download the zip file to your machine and save
it in a place where you can find it (for example, C:\Temp\).
