Suse 10.1 and Email

I use Sympatico and they use secure Email servers. Is it 'SSL one both ?????

also Suse 10.1 gives me only 3 ports to select and none work under SSL.

Can someone please advise the port/SSL settings for Sympatico, pop/smtp servers, and also how to change in Thunderbird to these settings...........

thanks in advance and roll on January, these Ontario summers ar getting too hot to handle.............................
