Turned on IMAP and POP3, and SMTP and had everything working, I could
send and receive no problem. I then tried to "play" with some of the
security settings, I clicked Login Authentication for IMAP and then
saved the settings. I then changed IMAP and POP SSL to Use No
Certificate. Hit save.
I then changed my mail clients to SSL and could not connect. I then
restarted the mail service. I noticed in the overview tab that POP
and IMAP are now showing as Disabled. If I turn off SMTP (which I am
using to send this email) the mail service will not start, even
thought I have set the security settings back to default advanced
security settings (Clear, Clear and Don't Use). I have tried
everything I can think of off the top of my head, and thought I would
try the list first before I dig deeper incase I'm overlooking
something small.
This is what shows up in the System Log.
