hello,
first sorry for my poor english
I'm doing the migration from UW-imap to Dovecot I have two question about the authentification in the imaps (port 993) process
In dovecot .conf I can enable (or disable) the différent port (pop, pops, imap, imaps) and may be restrict the access to the serveur with the ip adresse. Can I configure dovecot in imaps so it permit the access if the certificate is knowing by the server? Actually, this is the process to authenticate in WU-imap on imaps : the client connect to the server through a tunnel SSL (stunnel) and only if stunnel know the certificate, then the client can connect.
and more, Is it possible when the client (with a certificate) connect to the serveur with imaps to authenticate the user without prompting the password, so the authentication is throught the certificate ?
These are similar functionnality in the apache server with the restriction access to location et authentification with certificate.
thanks
