    I've installed SuSE 9.1 on my main desktop system, including the Courier
    IMAP server. However, I've run into the following problems

    1) I couldn't connect to the server, so I enabled ssl access in my mail
    client, as mentioned by others.

    2) When trying to connect, I get an error message about the certificate
    name. The computer name is "Linux", but the certificate is issued to
    "localhost".

    3) If I click on "OK" or "cancel", I'm still not able to access my mail,
    though cancel occasionally lets me read it. However, everytime I try to do
    something that error message appears.

    Any idea how to get this working? IMAP was previously working fine, when I
    had Red Hat 7.3 on this system.

    tnx jk
