How do I change my mail settings to TLS2?
I keep getting this message from Network Solutions when I try t read my webmail. We’ve determined that you are connecting to your email using an unencrypted client connection and your data is not safe. Where in Firefox can I make the changes?
This security update requires all email server connections to use an encrypted connection. We will make the switch to require encrypted connections on April 4th, 2024.
What does this mean for you? Read on to learn about the important actions you need to take to make sure your email stays safe and secure.
IMPORTANT! Actions that you need to take before April 4th, 2024:
