Are you running these on the same machine? I'm thinking you need
something more like
client# stunnel -c -d imap -r SERVERNAME:simap
server# stunnel -d simap -r simap -p /usr/local/ssl/pem/stunnel.pem
(client doesn't need a certificate unless you want it for
addl authentication.)
For better debugging, include '-D 7' on the command line, and
send it's output as well as 'stunnel -V' output to the stunnel
list. I'd take this off openssl. Subscribe info for the stunnel
mailing list is available at http://www.stunnel.org/
> When i use on the server the -v option i get an error message :
Don't use the '-v' unless you want to verify certs. My guess is
that you don't. '-v' doesn't mean verbose for stunnel.
> I don't have any certificates under /usr/local/ssl/certs to verify !!!
then don't specify '-v'. ;-)
