Hi,

Have used dovecot for many years, happy that it worked well without me needing to do anything much! But since the upgrade from v1 to v2.1.7-7 I've come across some config probs.

I want IMAP and to force TLS for all internet connections. However, I run RoundCube on the same server (over https) and this needs access too, but this doesn't need to be TLS because it's local anyway.

The auto-config update script made some changes, it added the following to force SSL.

service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } }

ssl = required

But this seems to forbid the local roundcube service from logging in.

Can anyone help me with my config? I had a stab, adding the following, but it didn't work. Was a complete guess anyway!

remote 127.0.0.1 { ssl = no service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 143 } } }

Here's my full config:

2.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

OS: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 x86_64 Debian 7.2 ext3

auth_default_realm = artfulrobot.com log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " mail_location = maildir:/home/virtual/%d/%n mail_privileged_group = mail passdb { args = username_format=%n /etc/exim4/virtual_domains/%d/passwords driver = passwd-file } protocols = imap service auth { unix_listener auth-client { group = Debian-exim mode = 0660 } user = root } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } } ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/mail.artfulrobot.com-with-chain.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/mail.artfulrobot.com.key userdb { args = uid=1001 gid=1001 driver = static } userdb { driver = passwd }

Thanks,
