Ok. Ignore my previous messages. I've got TSL working, but APOP is not
working, even though the server says it supports it. I get an error about
some DB not existing. Any ideas?
Also, I followed the previously listed example to create a certificate. How
do I use my existing web certificates? I think they're separate cert/key
files. Do I need to combine these? Is it better to make a second cert/key
for my mail server, only sign it with my CA cert? I've created my own CA
that my users trust, I just don't do this often enough to remember the
process.
Almost there with this part!
