The below illustration shows how SSL Email is handled.
When setting up your email client to send and receive email over SSL the following ports will need to be used:
POP: 995
IMAP: 993
SMTP: 465
If you have any trouble you will want to set them back to the default ports:
POP: 110
IMAP: 143
SMTP: 587
You may receive a domain mismatch error in your mail client, and in that case you can change your incoming and/or outgoing server to match the secure server name of the machine your site is hosted on, for example,
secure##.thoughtmedia.com
