            Bug ID: 194699
           Summary: no way to disable weak ciphers in mail/imap-uw
           Product: Ports Tree
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: Needs Triage
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: velcroleaf@rocketmail.com

There is currently no way to configure the list of used ciphers in
mail/imap-uw.

As I understand it, the relevant line is located in c-client/ssl_unix.c and is
hard-coded to be somewhat insecure:

#define SSLCIPHERLIST "ALL:!LOW"

If we could provide our own value for SSLCIPHERLIST at compile time, that would
solve the issue.

security/openssl allows you to disable SSLv2 and SSLv3 with options used at
compile time, but not all ports currently function without SSLv2 and SSLv3
support enabled, so you can't solve this problem using that trick either.
