<p>Good. I am going to focus on the IMAP configuration and worry
about SMTP later.</p>
<p>The following is the relevant documentation.<br>
<br>
This is very straightforward:</p>
<p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/ssl/dovecot_configuration/">https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/ssl/dovecot_configuration/</a></p>
<p>My file 10-ssl.conf is untouched.<br>
</p>
<p>However, this is the part that I would like to better understand:</p>
<p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/ssl/certificate_creation/">https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/ssl/certificate_creation/</a><br>
</p>
<p>Before creating my own certificate (which I have done in the past
for my old server), I am curious. Is there anything wrong with the
one that comes with the distribution?<br>
<br>
ssl_cert = < /etc/pki/dovecot/certs/dovecot.pem<br>
ssl_key = < /etc/pki/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem<br>
</p>
<p>As I stated before, I am attempting to achieve the simplest
installation possible which will be later tightened.<br>
</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>

Pretty standard setup.<br>
<br>
I my experience pretty much any client works with this setup.<br>
