The ISP that hosts my website gave me configurations he uses for configuring Outlook Email program. I am happy with Eudora and it works splendidly with Gmail. But I would like to send and receive using "***@xxxxdancing.com".
So I have a Personality called "***@xxxdancing.com".
Here is my sTunnel with problem email server configuration:

[urmy-pop3]
client = yes
accept = 127.0.0.1:1110
connect = mail.urmy.net:995
verify = 2
CAfile = ca-certs.pem
checkHost = mail.urmy.net
OCSPaia = yes

[urmy-imap]
client = yes
accept = 127.0.0.1:1143
connect = mail.urmy.net:993
verify = 2
CAfile = ca-certs.pem
checkHost = mail.urmy.net
OCSPaia = yes


[urmy-smtp]
client = yes
accept = 127.0.0.1:125
connect = mail.urmy.net:465
verify = 2
CAfile = ca-certs.pem
checkHost = mail.urmy.net
OCSPaia = yes

Here is the [Persona] section of my Eudora.ini file:

[Persona-***@xxxdancing.com]

CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD -- YOU JUST SENT IT OUT TO THE WORLD!

That may look like some obscured hash, but it is easily converted to
plain text.

import binascii as ba
pwd = b"SnVhbk1hcmlvbjMzKw=="
ba.a2b_base64(pwd)
b'Juan******33+'
(I've obscured the middle just as a courtesy, but anyone with a Python
interpreter can see the full thing)

The most obvious thing is: REMOVE the :PORT from all those server
addresses. The port is provided in separate entries.
