After building and install dovecot I then made my own self signed SSL
certs and placed them carefully into the correct places :
Thus :
# grep -v "^#" dovecot-openssl.cnf | grep -v "^$"
[ req ]
default_bits = 1024
encrypt_key = yes
distinguished_name = req_dn
x509_extensions = cert_type
prompt = no
[ req_dn ]
C=CA
ST=Ontario
L=Toronto
O=Blastwave
OU=IMAP server
CN=titan.blastwave.org
emailAddress=postmaster at blastwave.org
[ cert_type ]
nsCertType = server
# /opt/csw/bin/openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -config ./dovecot-openssl.cnf
-out /etc/opt/csw/dovecot/certs/dovecot.pem -keyout
/etc/opt/csw/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem -days 365

I then checked things out with a dovecot -n :
# /opt/csw/sbin/dovecot -n
# 1.2.12: /etc/opt/csw/dovecot/dovecot.conf
Warning: fd limit 256 is lower than what Dovecot can use under full load
(more than 576). Either grow the limit or change login_max_processes_count
and max_mail_processes settings

Other than the warning it looks ready to run.
I fire up the init script :
# /etc/opt/csw/init.d/cswdovecot start
dovecot service starting.
ps -ef confirms that things are happening :

I look in the area for logging and see :
# ls -lap /var/opt/csw/dovecot/
total 7292

Why is there a symlink to the dovecot.conf I have no idea but far more
intersting is the very large error.log.
# tail -f /var/opt/csw/dovecot/error.log

many many lines.
About 100,000 lines of that.
The message.log looks innocent :
# cat /var/opt/csw/dovecot/message.log
Jul 06 00:02:39 dovecot: Info: Dovecot v1.2.12 starting up
Jul 06 00:02:39 dovecot: Info: Generating Diffie-Hellman parameters for
the first time. This may take a while..
What's up with that "Broken handshake" ??
