Subject:[courier-users] IMAP + SSLActions...

I was unable to get Courier IMAP (as part of the Courier 0.34 package) to work with the SSL port (993) under Mandrake Linux 8.0 until I commented out the two IMAP4-SSL lines (port 585, TCP and UDP) in /etc/services.

Until that point, couriertcpd was opening port 585 rather than 993. I checked in /proc and the command line for couriertcpd explicitly told it to open port 993, but apparently couriertcpd is too smart for its own good.

After I commented out the IMAP4-SSL lines in /etc/services, couriertcpd opened the right port and everything works fine.

This behavior didn't appear under Mandrake 7.2 with a previous version of Courier.

I'm just posting this in case anyone else has similar problems and to suggest that a fix be put in to couriertcpd to make it open the port it is told. Otherwise, I really like courier and in the process of switching to it from qmail on another machine.

Regards,

Steve Jenks
