Qpopper experts, I just went live with our ssl implementation of qpopper today and I am finding mixed results. Many Eudora users of 5.1 have to go into options and add our site as a trusted certificate. This is fine. However, quite a few clients with Eudora 5.1 simply keep working and never force the Trust issue. They do have "if available, starttls" or "require ttl". But if they click on the button next to it, it states they have never accessed a TTLS server. So they are continuing to work in plain text mode. Why? If we require ttl, shouldn't it force the process? Well it appears to still retrieve in plain text mode since they still get the "never accessed a ttls server response.
In some cases, we know that Norton AntiVirus is acting as an intercept for filtering email. If we take out the Norton intercept address and put them back to our server with their standard username, they start to work properly with SSL. But some people do NOT have Norton intercepting their email as far as I can tell; i.e., they have our standard server and their standard username. So why might their client not attempt to negotiate an SSL connection? Could Norton be working in the background to intercept somehow? What else might I look for? Also, Am I correct in assuming that Norton probably can't be used for direct email filtering if one wants SSL protection? -- Tim Tyler Network Manager - Beloit College [EMAIL PROTECTED] Go Packers!
