    Hi Tom.

    I've been looking at a program that will "translate" SSL into something
the newton can understand.
    It's called Delegate http://www.delegate.org/delegate/ and the SSL
plug-in SSLway http://www.delegate.org/delegate/ssl/ .

    There are a lot of configuration examples in those pages, and the
mailing list is very useful too:
nntp://www.delegate.org/mail-lists.delegate-en

  It involves setting up a proxy, but it looks very easy to do. I got a
proxy working in windows XP in a few minutes, knowing nothing about these
things.

    Let us know if you can make somethin useful with it.

Daniel
