I have been running Dovecot-1.0rc2 on a test server for the last couple of weeks. No problems. However, when I installed RC6 this morning, Dovecot refused to launch completely. Here's the relevant snippet from /var/log/maillog:

I guess this fixes it? http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2006-August/006209.html

Timo,

Yes--this does seem to fix it. I modified my copy of src/login-common/ssl-proxy-openssl from the RC6 source files, made the change you noted, and it seems to have fixed my problem (crashing on startup if SSL was disabled).

Thanks so much for all of your hard work and this quick reply. I'm running with this change in my RC6 now, and (I'm not a CVS user, nor am I very familiar with it) that this change will be rolled into RC7, then, right?

Thanks again for your response--much appreciated.

Hi, I have a problem after upgrading dovecot 1.0rc1 to 1.0rc6.

I don't use SSL at all so I have 'ssl_disable = yes' in my configuration. This works fine in 1.0rc1 but dovecot 1.0rc6 failed to start with the following error message "dovecot: Login process died too early - shutting down". Setting 'ssl_disable = no' resolves the problem but now dovecot announce TLS capability which is not what I want.

Any suggestion ?
