Greetings -- I got the freshest UWash imap c-client and built
that with SSL. Same things with fetchmail 5.9.13. And OpenSSL
is still hot, 0.9.6e. OK, fetching with pure imap works fine.
An attempt to fetch with --ssl croaks this:
3234:error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown
protocol:s23_clnt.c:460:
And in fact, fetchmail -p imap -P 993 succeeds, as if imapd works in
non-SSL mode over there. However, I do get STARTTLS or whatever when
telnetting to 993 among other configs, and my /etc/services properly
start it as imaps, as UWash docs insist. I swear I saw it linking in
OpenSSL.
BTW, when I tried to place ssl keyword in .fetchmailrc, it croaked all
the way until the poor word got kicked to the very end of the line.
I wish it were explained somewhere where to put it...
So how do I determine who's at fault, imapd or fetchmail?
Cheers,
Alexy
