Re: [bug-mailutils] Can't seem to get imap4d STARTTLS working

Hi, Sergey,

Thanks for the useful info!  Obviously, you've tired to the ease the way
for troubleshooting -- very nice.

I haven't tried, but I think there might now be a 3rd way, using gdb
with 'set follow-fork-mode child' and 'start' mode, or whatever its
called where gdb runs the C startup code and stops just before calling
main.  Might have to restart the running imap4d after attaching to it,
though.

But I'll definitely be filing this email away for (hopefully unneeded)
future reference.

Now -- the wonders of global projects!

Apparently the new version is so very new, its in the future (at least ,
thats what my server is trying to tell me.)  :D

Haven't decided yet how to handle this.

Thanks,
