With continued attention on computer security, enabling SSL encryption in uploading and downloading your email is a smart move that many Internet email providers offer.
Comcast offers SSL encryption for their customers using POP3 servers, here is the settings.
Incoming mail server: mail.comcast.net, Port 995
Outgoing mail server: smtp.comcast.net, Port 465
Security connection: SSL/TLS
Authentication: Encrypted Password
Google offers the same security capability with their Gmail service. You do however have to enable it under Settings and then select “Always use https” under Browser connection
Many if not all of today’s smart phones support secure email connections.
