Using /etc/pki/tls for IMAPS certs?

[Chris Schulte]

I'm running jira service desk and confluence on a centos 7 server behind an apache reverse proxy using ssl. I'm trying to receive incoming mail from a remote host (outlook.office365.com) with secure IMAP. I have the imaps service enabled and imap/pop ports open in the firewall. 

I keep getting "AuthenticationFailedException: LOGIN failed." The log files don't tell me very much more. I've verified with my remote host that my login credentials are correct.

I've updated setenv.sh with, VM_SUPPORT_RECOMMENDED_ARGS="-Dmail.imap.starttls.enable=true -Dmail.imaps.auth.plain.disable=true"

Do I need to add the tls certificates for my imaps in order to use it from a remote host? If so, how do I use the certificates that I'm already using for my https reverse proxy in /etc/pki/tls?

Thanks,

Chris

Dear @Chris Schulte ,

the certs in /etc/pki/tls are used for local services on your centos 7 server. The Apache2 or an own secured IMAP (eg, dovecot).

You are trying to connect to office36.com, so Jira acts as a client.

To get more insights, enable debug logging for incoming email.

So long

Thomas
