[stunnel-users] Line 51: "[pop3s]": Failed to initialize SSL

Mon Jul 15 18:02:49 CEST 2013

FYI the /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf
has the following set:

cert = /usr/local/etc/stunnel/mail.pem
sslVersion = SSLv3
chroot = /usr/local/var/lib/stunnel/
setuid = nobody
setgid = nogroup
pid = /stunnel.pid
socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1
socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1
debug = 7
output = stunnel.log
[pop3s]
accept  = 995
connect = 110
fips = no
