Comment 11 for bug 44335

I don't know if I'm right to post this here. If it's wrong, I apologise in advance.

For those who don't care so much about what debian thinks, I have made a "non-free" version of the mail-notification package with ssl enabled (for dapper). I have renamed it to mail-notification-ssl and it conflicts of course with mail-notification.

I have tested it on my computer and it works well. I really haven't changed much in the original package so I doubt it could cause any kind of trouble.

I must nevertheless warn you that this is the first time I compile a package ever. I have followed the ubuntu guide to creating a package.

I don't really want to host a deb repository for just one package (for now) so I'll just leave the package on my server, accessible via http: http://daluzduque.be/stuff/dapper_packages/mail-notification-ssl_2.0.dfsg.1-2ubuntu2_i386.deb

I did this package because there was no clean way to enable ssl in mail-notification. You had to compile it yourself. Now you can do it "the clean way" (well ok you can't have apt-get retrieve it for you, but it's a lot easier for beginners now with this package and gdebi)
