Title: Public (External) POP3 Access - SMEv7pre1
Post by: AaronG on January 28, 2006, 04:11:09 PM

Hi All

thankfully SMTP Authentication is now a standard inclusion in SMEv7 (i have previously been using v6.0)

However I don't want to use POP3S (secure) to access my POP3 from a public address.

Can anyone please tell me how do I enable NORMAL POP3 (port 110) instead of being forced to use POP3S (secure) for PUBLIC Access.

Even though the SMTP Authentication mentions "SECURE" it does not require the use of the SSL which is GOOD. It appears to plain old SMTP authentication... But I don't want to use POP3S (ssl) to access my mail from a public address.

THANKS IN ADVANCE
Regards
Aaron

For those interested... the enable POP3 external access you need to run these two commands from the CLI when logged in with ROOT.

Code: [Select]

db configuration setprop pop3 access public
signal-event email-update

Edit... changed as byte so kindly pointed out  :-D
