Greetings all,

I have just finished adding TLS/SSL support for my Qpopper 4.0.3 running on
a FreeBSD server.
I have created my own signed certs as per the documentation.

I want Qpopper to accept connections on both 110 (non-secure) and 995
(secure) ports.
Having just the 995 port works perfectly. But having both, I experience
troubles.

My setting for stls in qpopper.conf is
set tls-support              = stls

I have both service pop { ... } and service pop3s { ... } in xinetd. Now,
110 (non-secure) works perfectly, but whenever I check the box in Outlook
Express to use SSL (995 port), it gives me an error.
I tried disabling pop3, and then just the pop3s in xinetd.. I have also
tried changing "stls" to "alternate-port", but I still cant have qpopper
accept connections on both ports. In some instances, it connects to110 port
and does nothing and stays that way forever.

Any hints on how I can accomplish this?

Mind if I ask an Outlook Express related question, a popup window always
shows up whenever I turn off and switch back on the mail client and try to
connect to port 995, saying that the cert is not trusted. Is there a way,
where I can somehow tell Outlook Express to always trust this host, so it
doesnt complain each time? I have looked thru all the security and advanced
options but did not find anything relevant, perhaps I am blind.

Thank you much in advance.

P.S. I know I didnt supply enough info on specific errors and instances, But
I feel that I am just doing the wrong procedure here, please say so if you
need more error details.
