I consider it LESS security as SMTP after POP, because with SMTP-Auth, You sent Your e-mailadress and Your password of Your mailbox over the internet. When a man-in-the-middle catch this e-mail (or worse Your PW), he can use it for spam, or access Your mailbox. I suggest You use: SHUPP's version with netqmail like : fetch http://www.qmail.org/netqmail-1.05.tar.gz tar xzvf netqmail-1.05.tar.gz.tar cd netqmail-1.05 ./collate.sh # patch with Shupp's TLS and SMTP-Auth fetch http://shupp.org/patches/netqmail-1.05-tls-smtpauth-20040207.patch patch < ./netqmail-1.05-tls-smtpauth-20040207.patch certificate: You can copy thoses (extension .pem) from : freeBSD, vpopmail stuff cd /var/qmail/control cp /usr/local/cert/ipop3d.pem servercert.pem ln -s servercert.pem ./clientcert.pem Activate TLS by create a certificate, and You will be much better off to create an encrypted connecton to Your SMTP server by the SMTP Enc smtps 465/tcp #smtp protocol over TLS/SSL (was ssmtp) smtps 465/udp #smtp protocol over TLS/SSL (was ssmtp) -- Best regards, DEBO Jurgen Belgian Chocolates mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- www.guide.be * www.gids.be * www.guide.fr * www.shop.fr -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- / \ sarl GUIDE (sdet) --- the GUIDE, de GIDS, TELESHOP, SHOP __ | __ 128, rue du faubourg de Douai | / | \ | FR-59000 Lille, La France / \ | / \ Tél/Fax +32 59 26.91.51 Mobile +32 479 212.841 /|______\|/______|\ Site http://sarl.guide.fr \| /|\ |/ N° TVA FR-55.440.243.988 |\ / | \ /| RC Lille 74075/2001B01478 |__\ | /__| Siret 440 243 988 00027 | Compte BE: KREDBEBB (BIC) BE56.466-5571951-88 (IBAN --- Compte FR: CMCIFR2A (BIC) FR76.1562-9027-0200-0455-1870-127 (IBAN) \ / Conditions (terms): http://sarl.guide.fr/conditions.php -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- www.teleshop.fr * www.teleshop.be * www.teleshop.biz * www.teleshop.info * www.teleshop.name --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
