Thread: dovecot-postfix package security question


hi,

today installed dovecot-postfix package on server. working nicely admittedly don't know administering own mail server. followed tutorial found online.

question is, in mail.log i'm seeing incoming connections so:

mail dovecot: imap-login: login: user=<user@domain.com>, method=plain, rip=11.111.111.11, lip=111.111.111.111, tls

method=plain part scares me bit. see tls @ end. i'm not sure if thats thing or bad thing , if need worried security.

i'd appreciate help/guidance on this.

just means user logged in plaintext login used tls encryption on connection server.
