I had similar problems and this is what I did to get it working: Edited /etc/courier/imapd-ssl making the following changes IMAPDSSLSTART=NO (it was set to YES) IMAPDSTARTTLS=YES (the default was NO) IMAP_TLS_REQUIRED=1 Then I edited imapd.cnf and changed the hostname to my fully-qualified hostname, it will not work if you do not do that. You only need to edit the stuff under [ req_dn ] from "C" to "emailAddress" Then I renamed the file imapd.pem to imapd.pem.orig and then I deleted the file /usr/lib/courier/imapd.pem and then I ran 'mkimapdcert' as root. This produced another /usr/lib/courier/imapd.pem and I COPIED that file to /etc/courier/ and restarted courier-imapd and then I was able to login to my imap accounts on port 143 using TLS with kmail or Opera. Some clients cannot connect to this type of setup and can only use SSL on port 993. 8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
