Hello,
I hope someone can help me out.
I have been using my mail server for some time now and never had any
problems beside *sending first* to a gmail.com account (but that's not
too much of an issue). The main thing which made me perplex is that I
had to add the certificate to Thunderbird exceptions (which works fine
after doing so). Still I fear that maybe even the google thing may
relate to the following problem:
The certificate I got is for "mail.<domain>.com" which should be
correct. My MX record redirects to "mail.<domain>.com" while I also have
an A record with a prefix "mail" which redirects to the correct IP. But
Thunderbird sees the Location as "imap.<domain>.com" opposed to the
"mail." address I made the certificate for.
In the Thunderbird Support I was told it is because I configured my
server this way - which I'm not sure at what point I had the option to
choose the needed prefix. I followed this guide [1] with minor changes
and some small changes on postfix security side (which I also used the
mailing list for). I also asked in the Thunderbird support forums [2]
where you can also find some screens of the error.
Hope someone can tell me if I was configuring something wrong or if it
is actually a Thunderbird issue?
Best regards,
Akimiya
