Re: [RCU] Config: ssl:// vs tls://
That's a bit more complicated. ssl:// = client uses a dedicated port for these connections and directly start talking encrypted to the server (negotiate encryption ciphers) tls:// (in fact, it's not tls by itself, but STARTTLS) = client uses the regular unencrypted port, start talking in plain unencrypted text saying "STARTTLS" which means "I want to talk to you in an encrypted tunnel" and only then start talking encrypted (negotiate encryption ciphers) both postfix and dovecot support both methods. There are a lot of good tutorial on internet for their configuration. -- Sébastien 圣巴斯弟盎 Le 16/12/2015 03:17, Paul Schreiber a écrit : > On Tue, Dec 15, 2015 at 9:08 PM, Zhang Huangbin wrote: > >>> (2) Would/can you ever use tls:// with IMAP?

Postfix seems to support TLS and Dovecot SSL, but not vice-versa. I'm wondering what the distinction is when it comes to Roundcube. In general terms, TLS is the new version of SSL, which is why this UI/terminology is confusing.

[RCU] Config: ssl:// vs tls://
For my configuration to work, I have to use ssl:// for IMAP and tls:// for SMTP: $config['default_host'] = 'ssl://shrub.ca'; $config['default_port'] = 993; $config['smtp_server'] = 'tls://shrub.ca'; $config['smtp_port'] = 587; (1) Why is that? (2) Would/can you ever use tls:// with IMAP? In which cases? (3) Why would SMTP fail with ssl://?
