      9. Select Port 110 for a POP3 connection. For a secure email connection, use Port 995.
      10. Click the checkboxes next to the options that best suit your needs:
        • Leave a copy of retrieved messages on the server
        • Always use a secure connection (SSL) when retrieving mail *
