Thanks, that is clear. But man imapd does not explain the fields in
imapd.cnf.
I need to enter info in C, ST, L, CN -- I assume.
Does UK mean united kingdom for C -- or is it Ukraine?
ST in the UK is presumably irrelevant, though I could put the county in
there.
L may stand for 'long' -- or not. I could put 'London', as being near
enough. This may relate to timezone, or not.
CN seems to be servername for some reason. It currently says 'localhost'.
Maybe I need to put my domain name here. At the moment, the default
domain name 'example.com' only occurs in
'emailAddress=postmaster@example.com'. Surely the certificate was not
attached to example.com as a result of this entry?
Any guidance would be appreciated.
