As the providers in germany are changing to POP3SSL, I began to fiddle around with that.
I'm using fetchmail on my home mailserver and fetch the mail from around 10 different account from 3 different providers.
It took some time to get fetchmail accepting the self signed certificate of my UTM, but now it seems to work, but not properly.
The same time fetchmail polls for new mails the UTM blocks pakets for port 995.
Let me show some logs for 3 sample accounts:
1. prefetch
2013:12:15-12:35:25 fw pop3proxy[9387]: Prefetch for account 3: Successfully logged in on POP3 server 212.227.15.161

2. polling
