The problem in this approach is that you make a new connection to localhost.
This messes up things like
serialmail... and the -exec option doesn't accept options for the program,
unless you hack up the source.
I've heard about stunnel as well. Which of the two packages is the favorite?

Hi,
has anyone succeeded in using sslwrap together with tcpserver for
qmail-pop?
And would that person mind sharing his experience?
I've been using it for ages. I followed the sslwrap documentation to
create the
certificates and whatnot, and here's the script I use to start it up:
#!/bin/sh
exec tcpserver -RH -c10 -u444 -g444 0 spop3 /usr/local/libexec/sslwrap \
-cert /usr/local/openssl/certs/server.pem -port 110
UID and GID 444 belong to an unprivileged user and group I created;
there's no
reason to run it with root privileges.
I have qmail-popup/qmail-pop3d running in the conventional way on port
110.
