Hi,
lately I had some problems with fetchmail and the new STLS feature. Because
with a qpopper server at hand, it just didn't work. When I did some "-vv",
I was surprised that fetchmail never sent a CAPA to qpopper. So I went and
read some lines in pop3.c where the STLS/CAPA stuff is detailed:
[...]
:: if (ctl->server.authenticate == A_ANY
:: && strchr(greeting, '<')
:: && gen_transact(sock, "CAPA") == 0)
:: {
[...]
If I comment out the "&& strchr(greeting, '<')" line, STLS with the qpopper
works fine, BTW. So who is repsonsible here: qpopper for not announcing any
"<nfiowd(_at_)8320582340958>" in its greeting or fetchmail for expecting it even
if servers could do CAPA/STLS without?
Regards,
Birger
