Most Linux people seem to be using stunnel (a package for creating SSL tunnels for any TCP connection). It basically gets installed into your /etc/inetd.conf like TCP Wrappers (called after/by tcpd in most cases). That will let you (continue to) use any existing POP/IMAP daemon and just "wrap" SSL support around it. I haven't been using this myself, so I can't speak to it. The main thing I'd wonder about is how you manage the certificates. I guess you have to create a self-signed PEM cert for the server. Do they support client-certs? Can you sign them and configure stunnel to require *your* signature on the client-certs? Or is this just a way of use SSL for creating DH-keyed encrypted sessions? (without providing client or server authentication) Lot's of others use ssh tunnels. However those basically require that the client/users have shell access to the system. So those are more "ad hoc" then stunnel. > -- > Anthony C Howe 1489 Ch. des Collines, 06110 Le Cannet, France > +33 (0)6 1189 7378 (p) +33 (0)4 9346 8901 (f) ICQ# 7116561 > mailto:achowe@snert.com http://www.snert.com/ - -- Jim Dennis Software Analyst Axis Personal Trainers http://www.axispt.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.5.5 and Gnu Privacy Guard iEYEARECAAYFAjp2YwwACgkQIGV97BI+xjGd9gCcDC+XNFkzF9ksvvB7SploBAED 6K4An1RqJDoB29H/BkzPOaG7ClRU3EEc =FdqC -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
