ssl and email

[j_70]

I am trying to send email through an imap server running under ssl. I can send mail to any non-ssl server using secure-smtp-client. When I send the mail to an ssl server, I do not get an error, but I do not get the email. How/where do I install the email servers ssl certificate? I believe that is the problem. TIA. 😕

j_70,

I only toyed with IMAP before, but you can use PHP's imap_open command.

From the PHP imap_open() Manual Page:

// To connect to an SSL IMAP or POP3 server with a self-signed certificate,
// add /ssl/novalidate-cert after the protocol specification:
$mbox = imap_open ("{localhost:995/pop3/ssl/novalidate-cert}", "user_id", "password");

You can try that function, there is a few examples there.
