    Certification preparation resources (Reddit negativity)

    I concur. Yes, I purchase more than one study guide from different authors. In addition, I purchased tech manuals such as 101 Labs, and build a virtual network environment to practice what I am reading and studying.

    TCP/80 vs TCP/143

    Yes, I agree with Russ. The question mentioned using S/MIME to encrypt email. To receive encrypted email, IMAP uses port 993. Also, SMTP uses 587 to encrypt mail that is being sent.
