I upgraded RHL72 system to RHL73; a system including apache, php, php-imap, imap packages (among others). Imp 2.2.8 broke. It would not longer let you log in: May 18 12:39:08 otso imapd[14639]: imap service init from 127.0.0.1 May 18 12:39:08 otso imapd[14639]: Command stream end of file, while reading line user=??? host=UNKNOWN I run tcpdump on localhost and noticed php-imap sends a starttls command after which the connection is reset. Pine, connecting with SSL-IMAP to localhost worked. There are two explanations for this: 1) SSL-IMAP server with STARTTLS doesn't work well (unprobable as pine worked nicely) 2) PHP's imap SSL does not work with SSL-enabled IMAP properly (e.g. one possibility might be it doesn't like self-signed certificates). Recompiling imapd without SSL support (so it doesn't advertise it with STARTTLS) fixed this problem, so I suspect PHP's IMAP-SSL support is at fault here. I couldn't verify this as I didn't have all the buildprereq's to recompile PHP.
