I've got an IMAP server setup at home - which works internally just fine. However, I'm about to go on holiday and would like to be able to collect my email over the net. However I don't want to send my cleartext password over 3000 miles of internet. So.... I've set it up with IMAPS. BUT it's taking a very long time to complete. It's almost as if it's failing the DNS record lookup - but I don't think it's that as plain ordinary IMAP works just fine and the logs indicate it successfully looked up the host.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Andrew "I do not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." Francois Marie Arouet Voltaire (1694-1778)
