Is there any way to achieve this with dovecot? Does anybody have another idea smoothly force used to switch to TLS?
Hi,
Maybe by sending them an email with a deadline for the end of clear text auth support ?
If they don't amend their setup they'll be unable to retrieve their emails. :)... already tried this in the past and it just don't work... 80% of users never apply changes and prefer getting very angry and call the support. Which is exactly what I want to avoid.
Should you want to go the "nicer" way, you could throttle bandwidth to port 110/143 provided you use those for insecure connections. This sounds better and I though tc could help going that way, but there is nothing informative in going this way. I know what I ask for seems crappy and probably is out of the scope of what dovecot is supposed to do, but this would be temporary and I wanna make sure it is not possible before digging somewhere else.
Thanks
I think I would write a script that would glean such accounts from the dovecot log, then send them a message every day instructing them how to turn on TLS in order to quit getting this message. A support line to call for help would be nice for those who have difficulty changing their configuration.
I didn't think about that.... It's quite basic but i like that.
Thanks
