Hi Everyone,
I have two bsd machines that have seperate connections to the internet.
I set up one of them with IMAP-UW and stunnel. So I set up Kmail on the
other one with a recieving account configured to get mail from port 993
using TLS authentication. This sort of works, but there are interesting
problems:
Problem 1
My mail server's certificate 'fails' the authenticity test because it is
self-assigned. Why is this bad (aren't I *supposed* to get a certificate
with
# make cert
in the stunnel port?) and what do I do to get a better certificate?
Problem 2
Kmail allows me accept the bad certificate and logs in succesfully. It
then shows me my *entire* home directory, not just the mail folder. Why
does this happen?
