Hi All, I'm new and about to start with stunnel. We are facing certain issues with our application server (operating on Solaris 10), as it is unable to establish SSL connection with an email exchange server (P0P3). So, we have planned to use stunnel for establishing SSL connection. May I get some guidelines on installation and configuration part, if anything available? Regards,Shanmuganathan
Hi, Our application is not able to establish SSL connection with POP3 server due to some restrictions. Hence we thought of using stunnel for the same. Now we have installed stunnel in out application server. In the config, connect = POP3_address:portaccept = ?? What should be the value for 'accept' parameter should it be the IP of our server? Our server works in the same way as Outlook client, using the POP3 details, connect to the server and retrieve the emails. So what needs to be done in POP3 details, so that it connects via stunnel?Any other parameters we need to change in stunnel.conf file for accessing POP3 server via stunnel? Thanks in advance!!

for POP3S, you usually specify
| connect = <server name or IP address>:995 | accept = localhost:110
Then configure your application to connect to localhost instead of <server name>.
Of course, you could use any number instead of 110, as long as it is configured equally in stunnel and your application.
