the mkcert.sh script that comes with Dovecot - although I changed</font>

<br>

I can say that I too have never been able to get IMAPS working with<br>
dovecot, with both self-signed generated .pem files and my apache SSL<br>
keys. I have that same error message with Mozilla Mail 1.2.1 and
1.4b.<br>
