Hi Group, I have a windows 2000 box & want to communicate securely with someone else via SIMP(Secure Instant Messaging Protocol - http://www.winfosec.com/simp.php) I know that SIMP Instant Messaging is a "Direct Connection" & does NOT go through an intermediary server & that its encrypted, but being the security nut I am, I want to know if "stunnel" handles the SIMP protocols ? ... as I can't find anywhere what the SIMP protocols are ... because as I have read in the stunnel FAQ, stunnel does not handle UDP.
