Subject: Re: IMAP- how to protect a server?
I should know this, but does Kerberized IMAP encrypt the whole
connection? I imagine it does, but can someone say for sure?
Kerberos is an authentication mechanism, not an encrypting mechanism.
PS:
If you bump into ITAR rules, feel free to write a physical letter to
your congressman a note that you will have to buy software overseas
and
leave machines and software in your Euro office and wouldn't it be
nice
if you could actually buy from your own country and support the
dying
US encryption industry before it goes the way of TV manufacturing.
(those of us in the US should likely do this regularly anyhow).
Are you making an implicit assumption that everyone on this list is a US
citizen? 8-)
