Hi all,

Is there a way to disable the TLS support provided by Dovecot on port 143?

You can use ipchains or your external firewall to disable TLS, though why you care, I don't know.

Thanks, John. I'm replacing a UofW IMAP server, and would like to do a "transparent" switch to Dovecot. We found that the clients are negotiating a TLS connection on 143, and then complaining about our certificate. I want to avoid having to reconfigure clients.

I haven't hear of ipchains, I'll investigate.
