Hi everyone,

I managed to disable SSLv3 in /etc/courier/imapd-ssl and /etc/courier/pop3-ssl
Changed TLS_PROTOCOL=SSLv3 to TLS_PROTOCOL=TLS1

But how about SMTP ? How to disable SSLv3 over 587 submission port ?

Regards,
Catalin L

    Regarding this StackExchange information:

    
http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/70832/why-doesnt-the-tls-protocol-work-without-the-sslv3-ciphersuites

    there is no need to disable ciphers, but only SSL v3 protocol (POODLE
    is a protocol, not cipher, problem)?

    Here you can find software specific instructions for disabling SSL v3,
    including Dovecot:

    https://linode.com/docs/security/security-patches/disabling-sslv3-for-poodle

    I haven't tried these yet as it seems I need to upgrade my Dovecot
    installations first to be able to disable sslv3...

    Best,
    Peter
