Hi,
is there a plan to update/upgrade clawsmail?
I am experiencing problems and was told to try the new version (3.10.x), as the one in Salix (3.9.2) is almost 1 year old.
I do not necessarily have a problem with packages not having the newest version, as long as they do their job I can live
with "old" packages.
But in this case...how can I get a newer version (I am not a packager)?
Thanks

Hi Gapan,
SSL/STARTTLS authentication problems when trying to access the smtp server at GMX.
Details (in german) see here: http://forum.salixos.org/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=6096
In short, I receive alsways the error "553 authetication credentials invalid" when accessing the smtp server "mail.gmx.net".
The guys at Claws Mail told me to check and change settings, but regardless what I change, it does not work.
Further they asked why I am still using such on "old" release and why I dont switch to a new release.
However it seems more like "poking in the fog" rather than having a clue what is going on...
So, that is the story behind.
Thanks for picking it up.

Re: Clawsmail Upgrade
You can try a newer version, but I doubt that would help. Did the developers say they changed anything in the SSL/STARTTLS authentication code in the mean time? It's very easy to make a package of the new version. Just
and edit the "version" line to point to the new one, then
wait a while and when it's finished you should have a new package in the same directory.
Code: Select all
cp /usr/src/claws-mail-3.9.2/SLKBUILD ./
vi SLKBUILD
Code: Select all
fakeroot slkbuild -X

Hi Gapan,
No, there is no info on a change in that area, so I doubt a new version would help.
Thanks for the upgrade routine.
Maybe I will give it a try...

Hi Gapan,
seems with the corrected settings (as suggested in the thread in the German section) it all runs fine again.
I will keep in mind your instruction re upgrade.
