To disable this, you just need to set POP3_STARTTLS=no in the pop3d-ssl config file. > However, the new courier says it can do STLS when it actually cannot.

No, pop3s doesn't use STLS. If you run pop3d-ssl on a different port (995), then TLS is started by the client immediately on connection, before the client sends any POP3 commands. There is hence no need to use the STLS command to start TLS. When pop3d runs on its normal port (110), the client makes an unencrypted connection initially. However, if supported by the server, the client can ask to "upgrade" the existing connection to TLS, by issuing the STLS command. > How on earth do I positivly disable the STLS CAPA on POP3?
