Re: SNI support in SSL?

Hi,

yes, from the code you've pasted, I see it is able to distinguish the 
server name.
And indeed it works:

openssl s_client -connect some-server:143 -starttls imap -servername 
some-domain


Makes cyrus log:

TLS Server Name Indication (SNI) Extension: "some-domain"


So in a way, Cyrus is able to use SNI.


However, I don't see a way to set Cyrus to listen on one IP, but to be 
able to serve different certificates.
