[Dovecot] How to make pops
Hi, I use dovecot (pop) with gentoo but it's not securize. I would like to use pops but i don't how to do this. I think i have to use certificates...
This my dovecot.conf : protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s
imap_listen = * pop3_listen = * imaps_listen = * pop3s_listen = * ssl_disable = no login = imap login = pop3 default_mail_env = maildir:%h/.maildir mbox_locks = fcntl dotlock auth = default auth_mechanisms = plain auth_userdb = passwd auth_passdb = pam dovecot auth_user = root auth_verbose = yes auth_debug = yes
Thanks for your help

Debian Sarge has these options in the default conf file. Should get you started.
Disable SSL/TLS support.
#ssl_disable = no
PEM encoded X.509 SSL/TLS certificate and private key. They're opened before
dropping root privileges, so keep the key file unreadable by anyone but
root.
#ssl_cert_file = /etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem #ssl_key_file = /etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem
SSL parameter file. Master process generates this file for login processes.
It contains Diffie Hellman and RSA parameters.
#ssl_parameters_file = /var/run/dovecot/ssl-parameters.dat
How often to regenerate the SSL parameters file. Generation is quite CPU
intensive operation. The value is in hours, 0 disables regeneration
entirely.
#ssl_parameters_regenerate = 24
