Details
Exim isn't built with support for TLS/SSL, which me from
using encrypted email transfers.
Enabling it would introduce a dependency on OpenSSL, but as many other packages (including fairly basic ones like openssh, python, and wget) already depend on it I assume most people already have it installed. |
This task depends upon
this lines for TLS:
sed 's|^# SUPPORT_TLS.*$|SUPPORT_TLS=yes|' | \
sed 's|^# TLS_LIBS.*$|TLS_LIBS=-L/usr/lib -lssl -lcrypto|' | \
sed 's|^# TLS_INCLUDE.*$|TLS_INCLUDE=-I/usr/include/openssl|' | \
and this for dovecot auth.
pacman -Qs dovecot
local/dovecot 1.0.3-2
An IMAP and POP3 server written with security primarily in mind
With this line you can use a running dovecot imap server for user auth.
It works also with TLS and auth modes like CRAM-MD5
sed 's|^# AUTH_DOVECOT=yes$|AUTH_DOVECOT=yes|' | \
regards
it's the third update my mailserver 'sploded now. are you seriously using a mailserver without tls?
You ARE welcome to rebuild with ABS if I'm to slow for you, and, in fact, it's the recommended way to do these things until we fix them. It's YOUR machine you're running, not ours.
Please let me know if it works for you, and I will rebuild for both architectures.
yes i could use abs, but for a production server (uh hey yes i know i'm crazy using arch on that, bu i dont want anythong non arch anymore :D ) it's a bit messy to recompile exim every update.
works also for me.
