I ran this imap server for a short time but never had problems making and using a ssl cert. My server's called nagual.st. Are you sure the server indentifies as localhost even if contacted from the *outside* ? It does of course when you contact it from the local nic. As suggested using another imap server is also my idea. I don't use dovecot, but the whole courier mail package. It works like a charm. And is very fast. It does use maildirs though, unlike imap-uw. -- dick -- http://nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 4.11-stable ++ FreeBSD 5.4 + Nai tiruvantel ar vayuvantel i Valar tielyanna nu vilja _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
