Hello,

First sorry for my poor english.

slack 9.1
dovecot-0.99.11 (thanks for this) compiled with openssl (0.9.7b)
MUA : Mozilla 1.5 (win32)

Under a ssl session, at first, it's work. But a later ago, i recieved alway,
when i tried to contact the server imap : "connecting to <host> timed
out ..."

This fact is never without ssl.

No dns problems.

I don't know how can i help you my best because i don't see the problem.

So, i give you this information. Hope it will be help you for a solution. But
its seem to be ok.

#openssl s_client -host localhost -port 993 -verify -debug
