Hi Stefan,
My apologies for the long delay. Been ill.
I tried this and had an error,
# mv /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf.bak # cp -p /usr/share/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf /etc/dovecot/conf.d/ # /etc/init.d/dovecot restart

Hi Sophie
did you try the following steps?
- rename /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf to /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf.bak
- copy /usr/share/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf to /etc/dovecot/conf.d/
- restart dovecot
what happens? start dovecot normally?
if so
make a new cert with /usr/share/dovecot/mkcert.sh
and do changes in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf
ssl = yes ssl_cert =
then restart dovecot. What happens now?
Best regards Stefan

Hi,
I've been trying to get dovecot2 running and kept having this error message:

This package is from from Debian repos with version number 1:2.2.13-12~deb8u amd64
In case I had inadvertently entered some invisible charaters in 10-ssl.conf, I deleted and typed this out. Not copy-pasted: # >10-ssl.conf # cat 10-ssl.conf # echo 'ssl = required' >10-ssl.conf # echo 'ssl_key = >10-ssl.conf # echo 'ssl_cert = >10-ssl.conf
I’ve done usual searching online for a week and read some dox, but cannot see what I’ve missed out. Any ideas? Please?
Thanks, Sophie
