I have seen this before, on a server running 6.06 I believe. >This has happened with both the trial certificate AND our official >certificate from VeriSign. That is normal. The certificate you use will have little effect on how the SSL performs. It could effect how the SSL is handled by the remote browser, but won't normally cause any server-side issues. >It has also happened on both the default ssl webmail port and port 443. That, too, is normal. The port used won't make a difference as to how well the code works. >It has happened with users using both Netscape and Internet Explorer. Again, normal. The problem appears to be with the code on the server. The initial SSL code in IMail wasn't fully up to par (I haven't checked it out lately, though). The http://www.stunnel.org solution (freeware) that I mentioned earlier replaces all the IMail SSL code, and will take care of the problem. -Scott --- Declude: Anti-virus, Anti-spam and Anti-hijacking solutions for IMail. http://www.declude.com --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
