Hi,
Personally, we use stunnel for remote connection to our nntp server's office who is use like repository for our developpements and exchanges. Our database size is very big. So we use compression to exchange data between us to save bandwith.
I think that lot of user take avantage of this feature (data compression) like http,nntp,imap ... based on heavy compressible text. So, i hope to see one day, come back of compression feature.
Thank's for your jobs.
Ludovic.

Hi Ludovic,
You are right. With the new FIPS-compliant OpenSSL DLLs I stopped building them against ZLIB library. Not because it is technically impossible or very hard to do, but because it adds some additional complexity and it is not very useful (at least compared to FIPS). Please prove me wrong, and I will update the DLLs.
