When trying to run qpopper with ssl support I keep running into a problem that appears to be SSL-related.
We're running Qpopper 4.0.4 with OpenSSL 0.9.7a under AIX 4.3.3.0 compiled with gcc-3.2.2.
In /etc/services I've got
spop3 995/tcp # SSL/POP3
In /etc/inetd.conf I've got
spop3 stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/etc/popper-4.0.4 popper-4.0.4 -s -f /usr/local/etc/qpopper.conf
/usr/local/etc/qpopper.conf contains
set tls-support = stls set tls-server-cert-file = /etc/mail/certs/cert.pem
The certificate is self-signed
Hence, I think everything is set up according to the FAQ (http://www.eudora.com/qpopper/faq.html#tls).
qpopper was configured with
./configure --with-openssl=/path/to/openssl --enable-log-login
When I run Netscape 7.02's mail client with "Use secure connection (SSL)" checked the connection hangs and only terminates on clicking the "Stop" button in the mail client. In the logfile I get the following entries:
Feb 28 15:47:52 node02 popper-4.0.4[45588]: (null) at hag-i001.agrsci.dk (172.20.128.66): -ERR Unknown command: "^Āf^A^C^A".
Feb 28 15:47:57 node02 popper-4.0.4[45588]: (null) at hag-i001.agrsci.dk (172.20.128.66): -ERR POP EOF or I/O Error
The latter entry clearly is the consequence of clicking the "Stop" button.
Using the same client as an ordinary pop-client (i.e. without ssl) on port 110 works fine. Pretty clearly this is an SSL-related problem but I cannot figure out what it should be.
Any help would therefore be much appreciated.
Best regards,
