Hello everyone,
i stumbled across some serious problems with decrypting of e-mails if
you use a Dovecot installation with OpenSSL 3.X so i started digging.
It turns out that Dovecot is not OpenSSL 3.X ready yet, at least if you
compile it yourself.
The Debian Project adapted a OpenSSL 3.X patch to their repo version of
Dovecot to make it run with Debian 12.
Alpine Linux has not added a Workaround Patch for Dovecot yet.
This is actually really bad if you want to Upgrade your Dovecot Server
to a Distro which has OpenSSL 3.X as the new standard and you are not
using their patched Repo Versions but instead compiling dovecot by
yourself or install it from your package repos (which are not Debian 12
compatible also, which is probably because of OpenSSL 3.X i presume?)
However though i think that this compatibility should be added soon as
more and more Distros are using OpenSSL 3.X.
So: Is there a approx. ETA when the OpenSSL Compatibility the devs
worked/are working on is coming?
Thank you for your answers.
Kind regards from Germany
