I'm new to HM as of today. I've been busy setting up webmail, etc. and I was wondering if it is possible to enable SSL for webmail, specifically Horde. Thanks for the help.

Sure can at the bottom of the cPanel Mail Management screen it says click for secure site, click that the log in are you are SSL secure :)

:confused: I must be overlooking this. I can't find this option anywhere. Do you mind pointing me there in detail? Thanks.

And your all set

Thanks. I don't know how I missed that. One more question:

Can I replace the SSL certificate with one that is trusted by all browsers or do I have to stick with the one that is already on there? I want to avoid the certificate warning error if I can. I know that I can just permanently accept the certificate in my browser, but I and others will be checking webmail from different workstations.

Thanks for the help.

You will have to contact support and order a dedicated IP I think it is $30 a year? and then you can get your own SSL cert. You can't get your own without it on a shared IP since other sites use the same IP address. you can read about it here
