Today we had to fix a clients PHPlist. There was an error in their mysql select statement for whatever reason – whether it was their setup (they had some really weird group names and country names) or something with PHPList. Took us a while to figure it out, but as it turns out someone else had the same issue.

In the Kayako cron script, they have hard-set a “notls” option when trying to connect to the IMAP or POP3 email servers....
