evolution and ssl



Evolution is built without SSL support. So if you were using IMAPS/POPS
before and now fire up evolution-1.3, it reverts silently to the
unencrypted version, thus sending passwords in plaintext.

I would recommend the following in gnome/evolution/Makefile:

CONFIGURE_ARGS = $(DIRPATHS) --with-db3=$(prefix) --enable-openssl=yes
--enable-nss=no --enable-pilot-conduits=no 

Note 1: pilot stuff is currently broken in evolution

Note 2: Choosing a recipient when composing a new email hangs evolution
as in garnome-0.23 because of a gal bug, upgrade to gal-1.99.3. Apart
from that it appears to be quite useable.

Best regards,
Volker
