Hi all, I've used Dovecot since February 2012, but because I kept reinstalling Linux with every major version, I never had a Dovecot self-signed certificate go bad on me before. Til now. I started using rolling release Void Linux about a year ago, and my Dovecot self-signed certificate just expired. The solution I used is contained in these documents:

Hi all. Usually for in-house use and SSL I would just generate a self-signed certificate because most clients either ignore it or only ask the first time the account is configured. In terms of offering the service to our customers is there any value of getting someone like thawte or instantssl to sign a certificate for imaps/pop3s/smtp? Also, is there a configuration directive for dovecot

The ~/.pinerc config file is well documented. There is a bewildering number of options, and you can tweak it just about anyway you like. Choice of mail readers tend to a religious issue. Users of a particular reader will

Look up "roundcube", really straight forward configuration, once installed type in the IP of your server publishing it on a web browser and it will walk you through configuring it On 18 Nov 2016 07:16, <lists at lazygranch.com> wrote: > So does mutt suck or not? > > Original Message > From: Andreas Kalex > Sent: Thursday, November 17, 2016 11:06 PM > To:

Good day! I'm having trouble changing certificate/keys for my dovecot(version 1.2.9). When I set up the server (unbuntu lts 10.4.4) I did it with a self-signed certificate. I can't remember exactly what I did, just that I followed the wiki and it worked fine =) Now I have to change the certificate because a friend bought an official one (from thawte) and I'm a bit stumped. As dovecot

Well, it can't discriminate since any certificate (except those in your trusted store) that asserts its own validity is suspect. You can either get alpine to not complain e.g.

Always on the spot. It is "liberal in what it receives and conservative in how it sends". Since it is command line program, I can run it almost everywhere. It supports local mailboxes,

So does mutt suck or not? ? Original Message ?

Thunderbird is an absolute pig, taking hours to load my Dovecot IMAP. Claws-mail is good, but I have some problems with it. Alpine appears not to be ready for prime time to act as a window into IMAP.
