Dear Sir,

Can I use your great product Nginx as a proxy to translate POP3 requests  
to POP3s?

My problem is simply that I have a software which does not support other  
than POP3 connections for mail servers , and im in need to connect to  
POP3s mail servers.

SO I want a software in the middle to interface the POP3 requests from  
the client to the POP3s servers.

Could this be done by Nginx?

Best Regards

Anas Matar
