(:title Help Protect Your E-mail with Enhanced Security Network Access:)

Enhanced security network access uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) as a protocol that helps ensure the privacy of documents transmitted over the Internet, including email messages. Once activated, SSL encrypts your incoming messages, ensuring that passwords and other private information can not be intercepted in transit.

Activating SSL in Thunderbird is quick and easy, and CNS strongly recommends that you do so.

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol that helps ensure the privacy of documents transmitted over the Internet, including email messages. Once activated, SSL encrypts your incoming messages, ensuring that passwords and other private information can not be intercepted in transit.

Activating SSL in Thunderbird is quick and easy, and CNS strongly recommends (and soon will require) that you do so as soon as possible.

Have your UTORid and password handy and complete the following:

1. Start Thunderbird. Open the Tools menu and select Account Settings...
   
2. In the window that opens, select Server Settings from the options on the left. Then, on the right, click the radio button next to SSL. Do not check the "Use secure authentication" option.

3. Click "Outgoing Server (SMTP)" in the left pane under local folders and than press "Edit" button to bring up a page similar to the one pictured below.

Turn ON the option to "Use name and password"

Turn on the option to use TLS.

Click OK to save the changes and close the window.
