List, good afternoon, I was reading up on a TLS Diffie Hellman protocol weakness described here https://weakdh.org/sysadmin.html which is similar to the earlier FREAK attack, and can result in downgrade of cipher suites. Part of the solution workaround that the researchers describe for Dovecot here https://weakdh.org/sysadmin.html includes altering DH parameters length to 2048, and

Hi all, I am new to dovecot and squirrelmail and I am trying to configure squirrelmail with dovecot as its imap server.

Just a note to people if you're wondering why I'm not replying to most of my mails: I'm trying to get into university to start stydying cellular biology (so I'm applying to biochemistry and biotechnology). Their entrance exams are next wednesday, so I'm trying to use most of my time left to study for them (and also do some work..). I don't know much about the subject, so I

Hi, I need your help to use dovecot with sendmail I use a fresh debian 8 jessie and i installed sendmail and dovecot 2. Sendmail works fine. All mails go to /var/mail/xxx this is problem for dovecot. dovecot cannot get it. # 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian 8.1 auth_mechanisms = plain login auth_verbose = yes auth_verbose_passwords = yes

Based on the recent found weaknesses in DH key exchange, http://weakdh.org/ I increased ssl_dh_parameters_length to 2048 bits, and found waited for 5+ minutes for dovecot to come back online after a restart. Unless you got a fast machine, the initialization of DH parameters can exceed your patience. Regeneration may not be a problem (if ssl_parameters_regenerate=0 or if Dovecot uses old

I'm trying to get Dovecot (dovecot-0.99.10-6) to work with Eudora (6.0 mac/win) and am having a real problem when I try to enable SSL, either TLS or alternate-port SSL. Although my other mail clients, mail.app, imp, etc. work just fine, either version of Eudora craps out when trying to connect via TLS or SSL -- on the mac I get the error Could not get mailbox list. 20 [CLOSED]

I have used Eudora since v 1.35 (circa '93). For quite some time, I have enjoyed keeping each of my mail accounts' folders in totally separate directory trees. In Eudora you do this by specifying the data locatoin as part of the startup: '<program location>/eudora.exe <data location>' So I am quite spoiled. But there is no Eudora support in Linux/CentOS. So
