    Hi to everybody.
    I've realized a mailserver following the perfect server how-to(http://www.howtoforge.org/perfect-server-debian-lenny-ispconfig3)

    Everything is working fine.
    My question is: at the moment the outlook configuration to use that server is a standard one (POP3 port 110 and SMTP with server authentication on port 25).
    How can I setuo the server to allow also the use of SSL?

    I mean I want to use the standard configuration, but also give the opportunity to access on the account using the SSL protocol (so port 995).

    Thanks

    Hi yoplait,
    thanks for your reply.

    Reading the links that you suggested me I can see that it's look like quite easy.

    My question now is: is it sure that qith this method the customers can access to their accounts in both ways (with and without SSL)???

    Thanks
    Michele

    Yes. SSL is enabled as additional connection method beside the normal non encrypted connections.

    Do you also know how to setup POP3 with SSL?

    pop3 is already configured for SSL if you installed your server as described in the perfect setup guide.

    If you in /etc/postfix/masterf.cf uncomment also line
    submission inet n - - - - smtpd
    then you get also port 587 for TLS as gmail does

    So then you have three ports for SMTP
    25 - non crypted&TLS
    465 - SSL only
    587 - TLS only

    ports

    so if i fallow the above mentioned links+have the changes in master.cf :
    If you in /etc/postfix/masterf.cf uncomment also line
    submission inet n - - - - smtpd

    all ineed is to open ports 25,465,587
    ports 993 ,995 i do not need to open correct?

    If you want to use POP3S and IMAPS, you must open these ports as well.

    Hi, i too am trying to get smtp over ssl setup,

    I have made the changes to /etc/postfix/master.cf

    Code:
    submission inet n       -       -       -       -       smtpd
    smtps     inet  n       -       -       -       -       smtpd
    
    All firewall are open to correct ports.

    Sending via port 25 works fine

    Sending via StartTLS works except sent mail can't be copied to Sent folder. This set correctly in email client settings.

    Sending via SSl fails, it connects and if first time ask me to confirm self signed cert, but then get message that connection to smtp server timed out.

    Any ideas?

    cheers
