After an emerge -e world I started getting the following error dialog box when claws-mail attempts to make its initial connection (using IMAP). The account configuration is correct and has been working for months: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Insecure connection This connection is configured to be secured using SSL, but SSL is not available in this build of Claws Mail. Do you want to continue connecting to this server? The communication would not be secure. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Variables for claws-mail ebuild: USE="dbus gnutls imap libcanberra libindicate notification pgp spell" PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python2_7" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7" Variables for libetpan-1.1: USE="berkdb ssl" I do not have libsoup or glib-networking on the system. Rebuilding libetpan with USE="berkdb gnutls" has no effect. The account is a GMail account, using IMAP4, configured to receive with Authentication Method: "Automatic", and to send with SMTP Auth and Authentication Method: "Automatic". Actual Results: As indicated in description above. Expected Results: claws-mail should make the secured connection using the ssl or gnutls facilities on the system. ~ # emerge --info Portage 2.1.12.2 (default/linux/amd64/13.0/no-multilib, gcc-4.7.3, glibc-2.17, 3.9.4-gentoo x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-3.9.4-gentoo-x86_64-Intel-R-_Pentium-R-_Dual_CPU_E2160_@_1.80GHz-with-gentoo-2.2 KiB Mem: 2053224 total, 299992 free KiB Swap: 1048568 total, 1048376 free Timestamp of tree: Mon, 03 Jun 2013 12:45:01 +0000 ld GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.23.1 ccache version 3.1.9 [enabled] app-shells/bash: 4.2_p45 dev-lang/python: 2.7.5, 3.2.5, 3.3.2 dev-util/ccache: 3.1.9 dev-util/cmake: 2.8.10.2-r2 dev-util/pkgconfig: 0.28 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.2::local-portage sys-apps/sandbox: 2.6-r1 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.69 sys-devel/automake: 1.13.2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.23.1 sys-devel/gcc: 4.7.3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.8 sys-devel/libtool: 2.4.2 sys-devel/make: 3.82-r4 sys-kernel/linux-headers: 3.9 (virtual/os-headers) sys-libs/glibc: 2.17 Repositories: gentoo local-portage ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" ACCEPT_LICENSE="*" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=native -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/share/gnupg/qualified.txt" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=native -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FCFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" FEATURES="assume-digests binpkg-logs ccache clean-logs config-protect-if-modified distlocks ebuild-locks fixlafiles merge-sync news parallel-fetch preserve-libs protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unknown-features-warn unmerge-logs unmerge-orphans userfetch" FFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/gentoo http://gentoo.osuosl.org/ http://open-systems.ufl.edu/mirrors/gentoo " INSTALL_MASK="/etc/init.d /etc/conf.d /etc/cron.* /etc/runlevels /etc/xinetd.d" LANG="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,--hash-style=gnu,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --human-readable --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X acl acpi alsa amd64 berkdb bzip2 cairo caps cli cracklib crypt cups cxx dbus dri fortran gdbm gif gpm gtk iconv jpeg mmx modules mudflap ncurses nls nptl openmp pam pcre png python3 readline session sse sse2 ssl svg systemd threads tiff truetype udev unicode xcb xft zlib" ABI_X86="64" ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel" APACHE2_MODULES="authn_core authz_core socache_shmcb unixd actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache cgi cgid dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" CALLIGRA_FEATURES="kexi words flow plan sheets stage tables krita karbon braindump author" CAMERAS="ptp2" COLLECTD_PLUGINS="df interface irq load memory rrdtool swap syslog" ELIBC="glibc" GPSD_PROTOCOLS="ashtech aivdm earthmate evermore fv18 garmin garmintxt gpsclock itrax mtk3301 nmea ntrip navcom oceanserver oldstyle oncore rtcm104v2 rtcm104v3 sirf superstar2 timing tsip tripmate tnt ubx" INPUT_DEVICES="evdev" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LIBREOFFICE_EXTENSIONS="presenter-console presenter-minimizer" OFFICE_IMPLEMENTATION="libreoffice" PHP_TARGETS="php5-3" PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python2_7" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7 python3_2" RUBY_TARGETS="ruby19 ruby18" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" XTABLES_ADDONS="quota2 psd pknock lscan length2 ipv4options ipset ipp2p iface geoip fuzzy condition tee tarpit sysrq steal rawnat logmark ipmark dhcpmac delude chaos account" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, PORTAGE_BUNZIP2_COMMAND, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS, USE_PYTHON
I can confirm this with claws-mail-3.9.1-r1
I also have the same problem. When creating a new account, there is no SSL configuration available and when editing an account, the SSL option is not there.
Mine has mysteriously started working again. I haven't used it since filing this bug, so I have no insight into what, if anything, I did that altered the situation. I know that emerge -e world did not fix it. I would say this should remain unconfirmed. It may be some kind of intermittent problem, or it may be related to Google's habit of using multiple SSL certificates simultaneously.
i have this very same problem with 3.9.1-r1. it happens consistently, but only with one of my accounts. (none of them has anything to do with google, BTW).
SOLVED- sorry about my previous mail, i discovered what the problem was: somehow the gnutls USE flag was deactivated. compiling again with +gnutls solved the problem.
Now I removed and installed claws-mail again, without changing any USE flags. Now SSL configuration options are available. When I tried the same some weeks ago, it did not help. Whatever caused the problem, for me it seems to be solved.
I could not reproduce, too...so close this bug. Thanks for reporting nonetheless.
