E-mail programs: AmiSSL 4.3 speeds up SSL/TLS communication
In February 2017 a team consisting of Jens Maus and Thore Böckelmann (e.g. YAM) and others released the first version of AmiSSL 4. Recently an update to AmiSSL 4.3 was released which now is based on the latest version OpenSSL 1.1.1a (20.11.2018) and provides the current protocol and cipher versions of TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3. Changes:
  • Updated OpenSSL backend to latest OpenSSL 1.1.1a (20.11.2018) version including newest TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 protocol/cipher versions and general compatibility
  • Updated root certificates to latest Mozilla-based bundle provided by https://curl.haxx.se/ca/
  • Minor improvements/fixes
Using AmiSSL 3.x, some e-mail providers could not be used any longer on certain classic hardware because establishing the connection to the outbox and inbox servers failed due to the timeout of the required TLS/SSL encryption (amiga-news.de reported). Out tests show that version 4 of AmiSSL speeds up the SSL/TLS handshake. It is again possible to send and receive e-mails with a Freenet account using YAM and an Amiga 1200/030 (OS 3.9).
