If you have IMAP or SMTP accounts defined in a personal parcel.xml
file, you will need to modify them because of a schema change. Brian
has replaced the "useSSL" boolean attribute for IMAP and SMTP account
Kinds with a new "connectionSecurity" enumeration attribute which can
be set to "NONE", "TLS", or "SSL":
http://o11n.org/docs/current/model/parcels/osaf/contentmodel/mail/
AccountBase/connectionSecurity/
(Note, the following instructions don't apply to any WebDAV accounts
you might have defined -- their schema hasn't changed)
So for any IMAP or SMTP accounts you have defined in your parcel.xml...
...replace: <useSSL value="False" /> with <connectionSecurity
value="NONE" />
...and replace: <useSSL value="True" /> with <connectionSecurity
value="SSL" />
I believe for SMTP you can now set connectionSecurity to "TLS", but not
yet for IMAP. Brian can correct me, and elaborate on what TLS is,
perhaps.
