For those of you who would like TLS support for POP, does doing something
like:
% inc -host popserver -proxy "openssl s_client -quiet -connect %h:995" work?
(I'm not sure how much that code has been exercised).
Probably not much because -proxy was a relatively recent addition by me
(based on someone else's earlier patch). It's not an uncommon idiom -
fetchmail has a plugin option that does the same thing.
I mostly used it with ssh as the proxy as a way to circumvent a firewall.
However, I'm fairly sure that I've had it do SSL with stunnel rather than
openssl. Certainly, it's a lot easier than adding TLS support directly
to nmh.
Main problem with the -proxy option is you can't really use it from
.mh_profile without a wrapper script because we don't have shell quoting
in .mh_profile.
