Description Egbert Eich 2005-09-30 14:49:49 UTC 
stunnel doesn't seem to pass any data from stdin thru the tunnel.
Create a file 'foo' containing:
client = yes
connect = imap-dhs.suse.de:993
run:
  /usr/sbin/stunnel foo
type something like:
VM CAPABILITY
You should see a resonse from the imap server. Howerver nothing happens.
strace shows that the command line is read but the program returns to the same
poll to wait for the next input.

Of course this line needs to be terminated with a enter.
Comment 2 Peter Poeml 2005-10-04 14:45:17 UTC 
I can reproduce it here.
Comment 3 Peter Poeml 2005-10-04 15:22:37 UTC 
It works with 4.12... /work/built/mbuild/aust-poeml-1338
Comment 4 Peter Poeml 2005-10-06 12:27:57 UTC 
It also works with 4.11, and the change which accounts for it is the
fixed thread model (ucontext) which was used by default in 4.10 (and
which is made configurable with 4.11).

By building with pthreads instead it works fine.

Andreas, do you approve this update for 10.0?
I placed a fixed package under /work/src/done/10.0 for checkin.
