Using https://... rather than http://... is a better level of security: regardless of the network used (Wi-Fi, GPRS, 3G ...), the informations exchanged with the server (IDs, passwords, data ...) are not transmitted in clear.


To use HTTPS with the Funambol plug-in for Windows Mobile, you must install the root certificate in the Pocket PC that it could communicate with Memotoo because it is not present by default on Windows Mobile.


So download the certificate to this address:

https://www.geotrust.com/resources/root_certificates/certificates/Equifax_Secure_eBusiness_CA-1_DER.cer


Install it by opening the .cer file on your mobile, and you will have this message below:

Now configure the plug-in with the HTTPS url for the synchronization with Memotoo:

https://sync.memotoo.com/syncml
