Since the E61i has no escape key using vim is a rather interesting ordeal. I could send an escape key by pressing ctrl-chr, releasing ctrl, pressing chr again and select the opening braket.
Update The green key is also mapped to ESC
.
Debian’s exim4 uses gnutls which has a feature that will not allow my E61i to use STARTTLS (see #438137) . Perhaps stunnel can help here …
Update: To advertise PLAIN authentication with exim4 for connections origination from localhost I used the following statement in my plaintext authentication configuration (broken into several lines for better readability):
server_advertise_condition =
${if or
{
{!eq{$tls_cipher}{}
}
{
eq{$interface_address}{127.0.0.1}}
}
{yes}{no}
}
That way plaintext auhentication is allowed for TLS sessions or unencrypted sessions originating from localhost.
Using stunnel and a default ssmtp configuration I can now send mails from my mobile phone.
Since I use a self signed certificate on my IMAP Server, my new E61i is complaining about an invalid certificate. I added the CA to my mobile by converting it to an x509 DER:
openssl x509 -outform der -in ca.pem -out ca.der
transfering the new file to the phone and opening it with the file manager.
