   Another error I'm getting with pop3 which I thought was related to the cert,   
   I've not received any emails yet, but when a connection comes in they all give   
   this error with private key.   
   7/7 06:43:27 mail 0048 POP3S [162.142.125.118] Connection accepted on   
   192.168.4.109 port 995 from port 53678   
   7/7 06:43:27 mail 0048 POP3S [162.142.125.118] Hostname: scanner   
   19.ch1.censys-scanner.com   
   7/7 06:43:27 mail 0048 POP3S [162.142.125.118] ERROR 'Bad argument, parameter   
   3' (-3) setting private key   
      
   You'd mentioned the ssl.cert should've been created automatically, but I   
   didn't have it after I built SBBS.   
      
   Thanks again for your insight -   
   Sam
