Re: HAProxy and pop and smtp?

Hi Rob,

I'm new in Haproxy too, I mean I used it since several weeks for http and imap proxy. For imap I used tcp mode on port 143, this work fine

listen imap 10.1.1.143:143

        maxconn 500
        mode tcp
        balance roundrobin
        server _1_ 10.1.1.144:143 c1 check inter 5000 fall 4 rise 1
        server _2_ 10.1.1.145:143 c2 check inter 5000 fall 4 rise 1
        stats enable

But I also need to be able to forward the source adress, but due to the way it works, I don't imagine that haproxy can send it on an non layer7 protocol, but as I said, I'm new in haproxy

I need the source IP on SSL two, but is there a way to do that without an ssl reverse-proxy, after reading docs on haproxy website, and on ssl protocol itself, not sur it is possible
