Ive put together some packages that implement pop over ssl, imap over ssl, and smtp over ssl using smtp authentication.
Available from: http://www.pagefault.org/e-smith/contrib/index.html#securemail e-smith-cvm-unix-0.0.1-01dc.noarch.rpm sme server and gateway - unix credential validation module e-smith-securemail-0.0.1-01dc.noarch.rpm sme server and gateway - mail services over ssl e-smith-imaps-0.0.1-01dc.noarch.rpm sme server and gateway - imap over ssl e-smith-pop3s-0.0.1-01dc.noarch.rpm sme server and gateway - pop over ssl e-smith-ssmtp-0.0.1-01dc.noarch.rpm sme server and gateway - smtp over ssl Also Requires: cvm-0.11-1.i386.rpm Credential Validation Modules What does it do? This set of packages will enable secure remote access to sending and recieving emails from your sme/e-smith server version 5.5 running mailfront. Once installed you will need to reconfigure your email client to send and recieve via the ssl enabled services, pop over ssl (port 995), imap over ssl (port 993), and smtp over ssl (port 465). The smtp over ssl requires the user to validate their authentication credentials in order to relay messages via your server. This uses the cvm sasl module provided by the author of mailfront. For example in Outlook Express, you would navigate to Tools->Accounts->{Select your account}->Properties and ensure in the Servers tab that 'My server reuires authentication' is ticked for ssmtp, and in the Advanced tab that 'This server requires a secure connection (SSL)' is ticked for the appropriate service. Note that once you have ticked this for smtp you need to change the port to 465 as mailfront does not yet support TLS. Installation notes are on that website. Constructive feedback as always welcome. -- Damien -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives by mail and http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org
