Greetings, I have seen via google that this very problem was already discussed on several lists some months ago, but the archives report no solution. I have a remote server with dovecot 1.0-0_12.beta8 on Centos 4.3. IMAP works just fine: I can read email from both Squirrelmail via web and Kmail. Now I have created an ssl certificate on the server, and I'm trying to retrieve email via pop3s from my home PC (running suse, if this matters) When I launch fetchmail here at home I get the error below. Is it caused by dovecot, or something else on the server, like some error I could have made when generating and copying certificates?
