Hi Aaron and all. Doing apachectl startssl tells me that that's already running. I have listen lines for ports 80 and 443 in mod_ssl.conf. I also have a <virtualhost _default_:443> block there. My error log reports that apache, modssl, and openssl restarted without any errors. Is there anything else I should check. Thanks for all your help.

Yes, my lynx has https support, and yes, the sqwebmail binary is running properly. As you can see Aaron, the rewrite rule you gave me does work. > > > > > > Looking up www.romuald.net.eu.org > > Making HTTP connection to www.romuald.net.eu.org > > Sending HTTP request. > > HTTP request sent; waiting for response. > > HTTP/1.1 302 Found > > Data transfer complete > > HTTP/1.1 302 Found > > Looking up www.romuald.net.eu.org > > Making HTTPS connection to www.romuald.net.eu.org > > Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host. > > > > lynx: Can't access startfile http://www.romuald.net.eu.org/cgi-bin/sqwebmail > > > > > > So, my only guess is that I screwed up somewhere in mod_ssl.conf. If someone could please take the time to look it over and help me learn, please write me privately. Your time would be appreciated.
