Re: [Phpgroupware-users] Email authentication problem 0.9.16RC3

[Chris Weiss]

it has to do with RH compiling in a non-standard default to use IMAP-S and
POP3-S even when you don't specify to to so.  I have "fixed" this on RH9
before by forcing /notls in class.mail_dcom_imap.inc.php.  I don't recall
exactly where but I did report the fix back to the email app maintainer.  I do
not know if he implemented yet.  I also posted the fix to the mailing list,
http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/phpgroupware-users/2003-11/msg00073.html,
those line numbers should still be very close if not the same.
