[Pkg-openssl-devel] Bug#871987: openssl breaks dovecot

Package: libssl1.1
Version: 1.1.0f-4

Since the upgrade to 1.1.0f-4 I cannot read EMails via imap from 
my old ipad anymore (unless I disable encryption). Moving back to 
1.1.0f-3 fixes the problem.

imap server is dovecot 1:2.2.31-1.

Of course I know that tls 1.0 and 1.1 have been dropped on purpose,
but that was a bad idea. I won't throw my old devices away, just
because tls 1.1 is not as strong as 1.2. Its sufficiently safe for
daily use. Surely it is better than having no encryption at all.

Please reconsider. Tls 1.1 and older should be disabled by the user 
in a config file.

Regards
Harri
