All: I have been using SSL/TLS encryption with success for a while now, however just today, I tried to receive a piece of email from my mailbox which was about 20MB in size. The POP server returned the following error on each attempt. The only way around this was to retrieve the message without using SSL (i.e. in the clear).
My mail client is outlook. Any idea why this error might be occurring? I am directly connected to the pop server over a dedicated 10M Ethernet, so no traffic issues. Is there a file size limit in OpenSSL? I noticed that the mailbox was successfully copied to the temp file before the errors appeared. Lots of disk space available on the server too, my client timeout is set to a minute (not the issue).... thoughts?
