What I hadn't seen earlier: Why is your system linking against
libcrypto.a and not libcrypto.so? Statically linking objects that use
libdl is not exactly a good idea - leaving aside that statically linking
huge monsters such as openssl isn't a good idea anyhow. Upgrade OpenSSL
(bug fix!) and you'll be reinstalling all network applications for the
next day...
I might add pkg-config support for SSL to ./configure{,.ac} - do
"pkg-config --cflags openssl" and "pkg-config --libs openssl" work for you?
And, to be complete, the insufficient handling of the "unknown IMAPS"
situation is a remaining bug, too; it should be more user-friendly
as I had argued (handling, error messages, documentation).
Right, the error messages will now also point to --service and the FAQ -
turns out we had two central locations only.
The --port workaround is ages old, is now also documented in the --ssl
section of the man page, and has been documented in the FAQ (R12) in
-rc3 already. I believe this is exhaustive.
The error messages on the getaddrinfo() line however are provided by the
operating system, so send your complaints about "servname not for
ai_socktype" (EAI_SERVICE, I checked Solaris 8 SPARC) to Sun
Microsystems.
