Problems with secure socket layer on email server.
I am fairly new to linux and suse but I am trying to set up 8.2 pro as a mail server. I have recieved all of the updates. and found this in the documentation to create forward listeners ssl -L 25:myserver:25 myserver ssl -L 110:myserver:110 myserver I had to shudown my pop3 server to get the 110 port to allow that and I started it back up. I get the following mesage in outlook from a pc internal to the network The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'redmail.redoakhealthcare.com', Server: 'redmail.redoakhealthcare.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure (SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E Etherreal from both machines shows 3 queries and acks In the mail log I get command stream end of file while user=??? host=thehostIamrunningoutlook on and its ip address. I would appreciate any help -- Absolute Internet Services (http://www.aiserve.net)

ssl -L 25:myserver:25 myserver ssl -L 110:myserver:110 myserver You either mean ssh (secure shell), which is used with the above syntax: ssh -L 25:myserver:25 myserver
OR You want to use stunnel and forward requests to port 995 on your server to the local port 110: stunnel has to be configured in /etc/inetd.conf like this: pop3s stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/stunnel stunnel -r localhost:110 (you may need to install and start inetd as it is not installed per default). Secure mail transfer is a bit trickier, because it always uses port 25. At least it is a good idea trying to use encryption, even if you have problems to configure it!
