If you search for the "dovecot: imap-login: read(ssl-parameters.dat) failed: Unexpected EOF" error message in your favourite search engine you will find a few hits which are all rather old though. > > I disabled the auto-regeneration of that file in the dovecot > > configuration via the "ssl_parameters_regenerate: 0" setting, but still > > on every restart of the server the file is generated with wrong data. > > It shouldn't be regenerated at startup as long as the file exists. Do > you have it in /var/lib/dovecot? No, the default place for it to reside seems to be /var/run/dovecot/login/ssl-parameters.dat (which is probably purged each restart?). The configuration file has no directive as this link (http://markmail.org/message/ymdg3f3minq7asb2) shows: The place seems to only be configurable at ./configure time. -- ICQ #81510866 - http://the-gay-bar.com - jabber ta...@jabber.org Occam's Razor: -"Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem."-
