Hi Nick. I know you from COS but different handle.
Welcome and I hope you enjoy K9.
Perhaps this can help as I've been using this setup with COS52 for
some time.
It was a bit of a pain to figure out what would get it to work. I
think I gave up on STARTTLS as I've defaulted to SSL/TLS. I've
forced that TLS is only used on the COS box without any downgrading.
on the Incoming try port 993 with SSL/TLS; normal pswd
on the Outgoing try port 465 with SSL/TLS; normal pswd
Cheers!

Hi,
I am trying to get K-9 to use certificates/STARTTLS to
communicate with and relay through my postfix mail server. I
have a self-signed ca-cert and have generated user certificates
and keys from this. I have imported the ca-cert into Android and
the p12 user certificate into K-9.
Using STARTTLS/port 587, every time I switch from user/pass
authentication to certificates I get a message from
K-9:[code]Cannot connect to server. (Unable to authenticate. The
server does not advertise the SASL EXTERNAL capability. This
could be a problem with the client certificate (expired, unknown
certificate authority) or some other configuration
problem.)[/code]I have tried using a user certificate and the
system certificate but nothing I do changes the reply.
If I try telnetting into port 587 I get:[code][root@server ~]#
telnet 127.0.0.1 587
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mailserver.howitts.co.uk ESMTP Postfix

I get is:[code]Apr 5 16:33:27 server postfix/smtpd[9162]:

the connection seems to be OK at the postfix end.
I do sometimes get host-name mismatch warnings which I accept
but then I end up with the same error.
Have you any idea what I am doing wrong?
TIA,
Nick
