But I use FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE-p15 with native compiler. Really nobody has this problem on freebsd?
And the main - Why I can't start dovecot without SSL :) Why I see in log "pop3-login: BUG: SSL initialization parameters not given while they should have been" even if I have "ssl_disable = yes" in dovecot.conf 1.0b3 works fine. This problem is main for me because I don't want to use SSL.
I run FreeBSD here, and my hunch is that SSL (or some form) was compiled it. Which would help explain the errors you describe. What "knobs" did you use when you built it? Did you simply take the default without examining the Makefile? My hunch is that if you take a closer look at how it was built and installed; you'll find some form of SSL/ encryption was built into it, and you'll either have to: cd /usr/ports/mail/dovecot; make deinstall; tweak the Makefile to your needs; make reinstall. Or figure out how to utilize the security method that was built in by default. Perhaps SASL2, or GSSAPI, as I see they're options in the Makefile.
Best wishes. I hope this helps.
