Hi echicken,

I recently did a fresh reinstall and I'm having an issue with mail when using https/TLS.

When using unencrypted http, I can view mail just fine without issues, but when using https, I can't view any mail.

I know, more work... lmao! I just thought I'd report this. :)

This is likely to be a problem with the web server or Synchronet's SSL/TLS support. The web interface itself doesn't do anything differently when served over HTTP vs. HTTPS (with just one exception, which isn't related to mail).

I'm not using native HTTPS in Synchronet at the moment, but I may try to set it up somewhere soon to see if I can reproduce this. You're not the only one having this sort of trouble.

You're right, I'm running the Synchronet web server with SSL/TLS support on. If the exception you're speaking of is the ftelnet code, I know about it. lol

The message bases work just fine though. :)

That's the one, to place a ws or wss URL in the page as needed.

I did some testing yesterday, and the problem seems to be with TLS and "large" transfers, and not limited to the webserver. Could be a bug in cryptlib or with how it's being used. I'll probably have to bug Deuce about it.
