A number of ISP mail services have had issues lately, Verizon

disable POP3 and require use of POP3s (SSL secured), but I don't think
that has happened yet, I still get spam in my VZmail on my cell.
Control of spam and control of email privacy/authentication are two
different things. Using SSL won't in itself do anything to prevent spam.
