[Dovecot] Client with SSL client cert support?
Good day, all,
I've gleaned that dovecot has support for verifying SSL client certs on connect. What IMAP clients have people found that support sending a specific SSL cert? I can't find this feature in Thunderbird, at least.
Thanks,
Peter

Thunderbird will send a client certificate if there is one in its certificate manager (probably with an email address matching the account address) and the server asks for it. There seems to be no way to configure this though.
Thanks,

You can set "security.default_peronal_cert" to "Ask Every Time" in Thunderbird, but it's not very nice.
If you use a recent Dovecot, it will send out a list of accepted CA names, so the client will select the proper one automatically.
