Hello,

Thanks again for your response...

However, upon closer inspection, it seems that both
"/etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem" and "/etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem" already
exist!

I'm running Debian Lenny 5.0 btw - does anyone know if these keys were
simply part of the dovecot package, or whether they have been generated
during the installation process and are therefore unique?

If they are unique, then I don't need to generate my own, perhaps?

Thanks again,
Richard.
