Your emails are extremely poorly formatted and too much trouble to try
to read.
If you want to get help, you should learn how to properly compose an email.

Thank you for the response, Pascal!But I have read the all flags and functions
that might be useful for this problem before sending this letter.Please, find
one more minute to know what I've done yet!
1. I installed MTA (sendmail) first. Then tuned it for receiving and sending emails outside of localhost. As for MDA I used
"MAILER(`local')" as dovecot has built in one! 2. I installed IMAP Server (dovecot). I made it working in PLAIN
LOGIN mode on imap protocol. But as you know it doesn't mean that dovecot won't use SSL/TLS. So we are going to transmit out
data as a plain text inside SSL/TLS. (see http://wiki1.dovecot.org/SSL, "... Some clients unfortunately try to do
plaintext authentication without STARTTLS, even when IMAP server has told the client that it won't work." ). So when
you try to disable ssl-support in dovecot.conf, you are going to get the message "SECURITY PROBLEM: insecure server
advertised AUTH=PLAIN ...". The same message you get when putting "/notls" flag. That why I thought It might
be a certificate configuration problem on the client side! Cause when I tried to put the /novalidate-cert flag in string
"$mbox =
imap_open("{XXXXXX.com:143/novalidate-cert}","user_name","user_password");" I
immediately got the message: "Undefined variable: mbox in ...". Also keep in mind that the connection to imap
server (dovecot) can be established through telnet. So my guess is around misconfiguration of php5-imap module! I've also
checked apache-server configuration cause it could also be a problem as I use php-functions on webserver environment.
So what would you say?Please, correct me if I am wrong.Thanks again for the
response and, please give me a feedback as soon as you can!
My best,Edward.
