I'm attempting to get Dovecot working with MySQL user database on

Update: I got it to connect successfully now after downgrading the MySQL
server tls-version from TLSv1.1 to TLSv1.

Is there a reason why Dovecot MySQL doesn't support TLSv1.1?

Thanks!

Dovecot mysql uses libmysqlclient. We do not enforce any particular tls protocol version. If it requires you to downgrade I suggest you review your client my.cnf for any restrictions.

Thanks Aki! I'm looking at it now and despite identical MySQL 5.7.26 versions on both systems, it seems Dovecot is using libmysqlclient 5.6.37.

Dovecot seems to be using the older libmysqlclient.so.18.1.0 (5.6.37) from mysql-community-libs-compat 5.7.26 instead of the newer libmysqlclient.so.20.3.13 (5.7.26) from mysql-community-libs 5.7.26.

If I try to remove the libs-compat, yum also insists on removing dovecot-mysql, so it depends on the older libmysqlclient and ignores the newer one.

I don't suspect I can do anything on my end to force the Dovecot CentOS package to use the non-compat libmysqlclient?

Thanks,
Reio

What repo are you using?
