If you use Netfirms.com webmail to retrieve emails (webmail.netfirms.com) you may have noticed that Netfirms has a link on their webmail log in screen labeled "Enter Secure Mode"
Netfirms tech support has informed me that as of mid July 2010, when you "Enter Secure Mode" and then send your username and password over the internet your user name and password are NO LONGER SENT SENT IN A SECURE MANNER even though you might think that it is secure because they have a link saying "Enter Secure Mode".
Not only did Netfirms decide to disable Secure sending of user names and passwords, they lead you to believe that clicking on Enter Secure Mode actually sends you to a secure connection.
It doesn't!! According to Netfirms tech support, it doesn't work.
It is a grave mistake to use an Unsecure webmail connection.
Find a better host, netfirms webmail is clearly not secure. After many years, I am moving all of my business elsewhere asap.
