Package: alpine
Version: 2.21+dfsg1-1.1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
Upgrading debian dovecot imap server to buster.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
openssl changed: openssl: openssl (1.1.1-2) unstable; urgency=medium
Following various security recommendations, the default minimum TLS version
has been changed from TLSv1 to TLSv1.2. Mozilla, Microsoft, Google and Apple
plan to do same around March 2020.
When i tried to use alpine this occured:
alpine There was an SSL/TLS failure for the server
imap.localdomain
The reason for the failure was
SSL negotiation failed
This is just an informational message. With the current setup, SSL/TLS will not
work. If this error re-occurs every time you
run Alpine, your current setup is not compatible with the configuration of your
mail server. You may want to add the option
/notls
when /notls was added alpine complained: [Server disables LOGIN, no recognized
SASL authenticator]
the workaround was to do this on the imap server , per openssl listchanges:
Changing back the defaults in /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf to previous system wide
defaults can be done using:
MinProtocol = None
CipherString = DEFAULT
* What was the outcome of this action?
* What outcome did you expect instead?
