I was looking at that too. The SSL patch for tcpserver was on the qmail-ldap home page and that's why I used it, but I've been getting some very annoying errors: 2004-05-12 08:12:54.215310500 qmail-smtpd 3346: message queued: 1084363974 qp 3348 2004-05-12 08:12:54.215322500 qmail-smtpd 3346: write error, connection closed which just means the SSL connection was closed. The behavior of Mozilla in this instance is to show a progress dialog that doesn't close automatically (you have to "Cancel") and when you cancel, the write error occurs and the message goes out. I tried debugging with "openssl s_client" but didn't see anything unusual. Very bizarre, let's see if ucspi-ssl fixes this problem. If anyone has seen this problem, I would really appreciate a pointer. > We need both SMTP over SSL and STARTTLS because MS Outlook > (Express) supports only SMTP over SSL but Mozilla Mailer(such as > Thunderbird) does only STARTLS... So we use qmail-smtpd with > STARTTLS and ucspi-ssl. Mozilla 1.6 and above can do SMTP over SSL in addition to TLS. I don't use Thunderbird but if the main Mozilla trunk has the feature, it's reasonable to expect it in Thunderbird eventually. > BTW if you know some MUA except Mozilla Mailer which can use > STARTTLS for SMTP, please let me. Gnus can do it, and it's a very excellent MUA in all other aspects as well. Ted
