MG's Notes

1. First stop qmail: “qmailctl stop”

2. Go to /var/qmail/supervise/ and  copy entire smtp directory to smtp-ssl .

Edit /var/qmail/supervise/smtp-ssl/run by adding :

SMTPS=1
export SMTPS

after line: VCHKPW=”/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw”  and change port from smtp to 465 .

Now file should look like this:

#!/bin/sh
QMAILDUID=`id -u vpopmail`
NOFILESGID=`id -g vpopmail`
MAXSMTPD=`cat /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming`
SMTPD=”/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd”
TCP_CDB=”/etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp.cdb”
HOSTNAME=`hostname`
VCHKPW=”/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw”
SMTPS=1
export SMTPS

exec /usr/bin/softlimit -m 12000000 \
    /usr/bin/tcpserver -v -R -H -l $HOSTNAME -x $TCP_CDB -c “$MAXSMTPD” \
    -u “$QMAILDUID” -g “$NOFILESGID” 0 465 \
    $SMTPD $VCHKPW /bin/true 2>&1

3. Edit /var/qmail/supervise/smtp-ssl/log/run :

change /var/log/qmail/smtp  to /var/log/qmail/smtp-ssl
