Mmmm, the private KEY is in the CERTIFICATE. And i didn�t have any problems
with that.
Can anybody tell me how to tell QPOPPER to bind to port 995. I�m running it
in STAND ALONE mode. So NO INETD or XINETD available. But if INETD is the
ONLY solution well, i�ll recompile and use it that WAY.
I try the solution proposed in the administrator guide, about THREE conf
files. But didn�t work. Sincerely, i didn�t understand it so may be i did it
WRONG. A production working example of the conf file(s) will be WELCOME. =D.

Thanks a lot for your help DANIEL.
Fernando

PD: i can�t believe OUTLOOK� 2000 can�t support STLS command =(

You are missing a config line telling qpopper where to find your private
key. May not be the only problem, but it certainly is one problem.

Well, if you're going to use OE, you have to set up a second instance of
qpopper, on port 995, with set tls-support=alternate-port. You see, the
folks at Microsoft haven't figured out this STARTTLS thing. Hopefully they
will get around to fixing their product at some point. Until then, you have
to run two separate configs of qpopper.

So you were looking for the right things. If you're running from inetd or
xinetd, you'd have to tell that software that you'd like it to respond on
port 995 as well as 110.
