Hello All

We want to use courier pop and imap with ssl. Therefore we created private keys and certificates and put it in the right place. We use a private key protected with a passphrase. But courier does not ask for a passphrase during startup. I already searched through the mailing list and read about how to generate an unprotected key. But we do not want to store the key unencrypted (unsafe) on our mailservers. It is not a problem if somebody has to enter the key at startup.

Is there any way to enter the password during startup or to feed the passphrase in any other way?

thanks in advance.
