It uses a configuration file, where you provide the host and the port. In the case/example you provide 127.0.0.1, which is always the localhost address. It means that proton bridge is using a server to listen to this IP and port. So in theory it should work if you configure your kmail account like in the example. The two different ports are for sending and receiving. I assume the bridge is making all the enc/deryption transparent to whatever mail client you use. regards --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
