[Bug 1383409] Re: Support TLS (not just SSLv3)

 

I have the same problem and I also know it to be because Dovecot on my
mail server (I run it myself using mailinabox) now has SSL disabled in
response to POODLEBLEED.

The error I get is different - though I'm guessing it's just because I'm not using STARTTLS:
The reported error was "Could not connect to 'elm.dhpiggott.net:993': Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s).".

I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 and Evolution 3.10.4-0ubuntu2.

Title:
  Support TLS (not just SSLv3)

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Starting recently, I've been receiving this message when I try to
  connect to my (previously working) mail account: 'The reported error
  was "Could not connect to 'mail.messagingengine.com:143': TCP
  connection reset by peer".'

  Due to the timing, I suspect that this is occurring because my mail
  provider (Fastmail) disabled SSLv3 support due to the POODLE
  vulnerability. I also found this thread
  (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1153052) concerning the
  same issue from Red Hat, so it seems a fix exists but needs to be
  released in the Ubuntu packages. This is a fairly serious problem, as
  I am now unable to acccess my mail from Evolution (and if I was able
  to access it, I would be doing so via a dangerously broken protocol).

  Ubuntu 14.04
  Evolution 3.10.4-0ubuntu2
