| | 2 | --- description: IMAP & SMTP proxy to connect vintage clients to modern e-mail. |
| | 3 | ## Olden Mail |
| | 4 | |
| | 5 | olden-mail is an IMAP & SMTP proxy that allows you to connect to SSL enabled mail servers using insecure plaintext connections. |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | This is of course very insecure, but it's intended to allow vintage computers that don't have SSL capability or ther right ciphers to still be used for e-mail. |
