Package: alpine
Version: 2.21+dfsg1-1.1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
      Upgrading debian dovecot imap server to buster. 
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
      openssl changed: openssl: openssl (1.1.1-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  Following various security recommendations, the default minimum TLS version
  has been changed from TLSv1 to TLSv1.2. Mozilla, Microsoft, Google and Apple
  plan to do same around March 2020.

   When i tried to use alpine this occured:
   alpine There was an SSL/TLS failure for the server

                                                   imap.localdomain

The reason for the failure was

                                                   SSL negotiation failed

This is just an informational message. With the current setup, SSL/TLS will not 
work. If this error re-occurs every time you
run Alpine, your current setup is not compatible with the configuration of your 
mail server. You may want to add the option

                                                           /notls



 when /notls was added alpine complained: [Server disables LOGIN, no recognized 
SASL authenticator]

 the workaround was to do this on the imap server , per openssl listchanges:

  Changing back the defaults in /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf to previous system wide
  defaults can be done using:

  MinProtocol = None
  CipherString = DEFAULT




   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
