IMAPS: GET BAD Error in IMAP command received by server.

zaiwen

I have configured dovecot with imap. Everything works fine.  Then I run mkcert.sh to generate the certficate: /usr/share/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem and /usr/share/ssl/pricate/dovecot.pem.

Then on browser, run:

https://hostname:993

It pops up certificate questions, click "yes". After a while, got messages:

* OK dovecot ready. GET BAD Error in IMAP command received by server. Accept: BAD Too many argument elements UA-CPU: BAD Error in IMAP command received by server. Accept-Encoding: BAD Error in IMAP command received by server. User-Agent: BAD Too many argument elements Host: BAD Error in IMAP command received by server. Connection: BAD Error in IMAP command received by server. Accept-Language: BAD Error in IMAP command received by server. * BAD Error in IMAP command received by server. * BYE Disconnected for inactivity.

****************************************************
What does this mean? How to verify imaps is working or not?  If I use evolution email client, point to imap server, select "always use SSL" option, it works fine. When I open evolution email client, it will pop up the certificate question and then open the folders.  But why it doesn't work when access from the browser? What should I expect from the https://hostname:993?

Thanks a lot for any reply
