[fetchmail-users] fetchmail can't talk to dovecot

[Marco F. <mfi...@mc...>]

Hello,

I have dovecot q1.0-0_22.rc7 up and running on a server: I can read
email from squirrelmail just fine. When I try to download email with
fetchmail, however, I get the result below. Why is that happening? In
dovecot.conf I have:

protocols = imap imaps pop3,

so why should pop3 or imap fail? Where should I look?

(I'll fix the certificates problem after I've managed to get in
successfully with plain imap or pop3)

(note: fetchmail is regularly working on other accounts)

Thanks,

	Marco

if I try with IMAP the part after the certificate verification error is:

fetchmail: IMAP< A0005 BAD Error in IMAP command received by server.

and I don't see any error message related to this in the server log.
