What is an SSL for an Email Server?

SSL, TLS, and STARTTLS are standard protocols to secure email transmissions. SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and its successor, Transport Layer Security (TLS), provide a way to encrypt a communication channel between two computers over the Internet.
 


We can always provide our server settings and walk you through setting up your Outlook. However, we cannot help troubleshoot errors specific to Outlook.
