Folks, I'm unable to get cyrus-imapd's SSL support to offer reliable service, and I was wondering if anyone might recognize the problem. Essentially every SECOND connection to imaps fails. My test case is fetchmail client connection to imaps, but I see the problem with Outlook 2000 as well. When the connection fails, it looks like: fetchmail: awakened by User defined signal 1 fetchmail: background fetchmail at 28206 awakened. fetchmail: awakened at Mon, 26 Mar 2001 20:43:22 -0500 (EST) fetchmail: 5.5.0 querying some.host.iworkwell.com (protocol IMAP) at Mon, 26 Mar 2001 20:43:22 -0500 (EST) [darren@alden1 darren]$ 28206:error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELL O:unknown protocol:s23_clnt.c:458: fetchmail: SSL connection failed. fetchmail: fetchmail: sleeping at Mon, 26 Mar 2001 20:43:22 -0500 (EST) Whereas when it succeeds: [darren@alden1 darren]$ fetchmail fetchmail: awakened by User defined signal 1 fetchmail: background fetchmail at 28206 awakened. fetchmail: awakened at Mon, 26 Mar 2001 20:45:15 -0500 (EST) fetchmail: 5.5.0 querying some.host.iworkwell.com (protocol IMAP) at Mon, 26 Mar 2001 20:45:15 -0500 (EST) [darren@alden1 darren]$ fetchmail: Issuer Organization: iWorkwell, Inc. fetchmail: Issuer CommonName: some.host.iworkwell.com fetchmail: Server CommonName: some.host.iworkwell.com fetchmail: Issuer Organization: iWorkwell, Inc. fetchmail: Issuer CommonName: some.host.iworkwell.com fetchmail: Server CommonName: some.host.iworkwell.com fetchmail: IMAP< * OK something.iworkwell.com Cyrus IMAP4 v2.0.12 server ready fetchmail: IMAP> A0001 CAPABILITY fetchmail: IMAP< * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 ACL QUOTA LITERAL+ NAMESPACE UIDPLUS ID NO_ATOMIC_RENAME UNSELECT MULTIAPPEND SORT THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES IDLE STARTTLS AUTH=GSSAPI AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN AUTH=DIGEST-MD5 AUTH=CRAM-MD5 X-NETSCAPE fetchmail: IMAP< A0001 OK Completed fetchmail: IMAP> A0002 AUTHENTICATE CRAM-MD5 fetchmail: IMAP< + PDM0MjMzNzI2NTYuMTI1NzkwNDZAbWFpbC5pd62ya3dlbGwuY29tPg== I'm hoping there's a "me too" out there . . . does this look familar to anyone? -Darren
