i just upgraded dbmail from 3.1.17 to most recent stable 3.2.3
with the old version 3.1.17 i could do an IMAP account setup in
thunderbird with SSL/TLS on port 993
with the new version 3.2.3 thunderbird now throws me an error that this
connection type is not supported by the IMAP server.
if i then switch to STARTTLS on port 143 all is working fine.
before i start into debugging this on my server ...
is this the expected behavior with the IMAP TLS setup in 3.2.3?
is SSL/TLS on port 993 not supported?
is STARTTLS on port 143 the only supported encryption?
if not ... how can i best debug this issue? what do i need to do to make
SSL/TLS on port 993 work again?
just run a proxy in front of dbmail like dovecot (i guess nearly
everybody still using dbmail does that for a long time to avoid
different troubles)
that way dbmail has no need to deal with anything in context of TLS and
143 with STATTLS as well as 993 with the wrapper work and the same for
POP3
just another question:
you wrote "... everybody still using dbmail ..."
what do you mean by 'still'? have you switched to another mail server
like dovecot, cyrus, ...
me not at the moment but i know people which switched to dovecot due low
maintainance the last year and ongoing user complaints
perhaps not satisfied with dbmail?
yes and no - my problem is that i built a ton of admin-backends around
dbmail and the database schema combined with a lot of automation and so
it would not be some easy step
i'm just asking because dbmail is not used by that many system admins.
and i'm also sometimes worried about the future of dbmail :(
i'm actually quite happy with dbmail and have been for the last couple
of years.
but i'm always looking for other peoples insights ;) what's your thought
on the current status of dbmail and its future?
i hope it will get more love in a forseeable future....
thanks for your thoughts. yes, let's hope dbmail will get more love,
which it surely deserves ;)
i'm actually quite happy with dbmail so far. not many user complaints
and things work as expected.
(except the IMAP SSL/TLS on port 993 ... but actually the POP3 on port
995 works without any errors. is that strange?)
but i'm only running a small mail server with about 100 mail boxes and 2
GB storage in the database
and the mail users are also no experts, just 'normal people', not in
need of any special setup
if i could program some C, C+ i would love to support dbmal, but i'm
'only' a web developer administrating my own linux server ;)
thanks & greetings
becki
