I want to read my email on the iPhone. To do that, I have 2 options: 1. VPN 2. IMAP-over-SSL #1 is a bit convoluted, I already run a VPN server, with OpenVPN, but the iPhone doesn't have an OpenVPN client. Running *two* VPN networks seems excessive for a small personal server - not that the machine cannot handle it, but it just feels too complicated for the task at hand. #2 would be easy to implement, just poke a hole in the firewall for the imaps port. But then there's the issue of security, of course. I am running cyrus-imapd-2.3.7 on CentOS 5.x How comfortable y'all are with exposing Cyrus IMAPd's imaps port to the big wild Internet? Do you see the SELinux confinement as a must-have in this context, or are you okay with running it without any such MAC protections? -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/ ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
