As far as i know korn don't support pop3 over ssl but there is a very simple 
workaround for it. I use stunnel for it.

simple
apt-get install stunnel
run it like this:
stunnel -c -d 127.0.0.1:110 -r ip_of_your_mail_server:995
then configure korn to connect to 127.0.0.1 on port 110 with your mail login 
and password.

It works fine for me :)
