You don't need TLS/SSL from the outside either, if this is strictly a webmail box. In this case, configure Apache/lighttpd+Horde to only accept HTTPS connections from the outside, and configure Horde to connect via the Dovecot localhost:143 listener. This is how I've been doing it with Roundcube for years. Works like a champ. With encrypted sessions between browser and web server, and both Horde and Dovecot running on the same host, you don't need to, nor want to, use IMAPS. -- Stan
