Why does my SSL connection seem to be in an infinite loop in the log?

Question

I see a lot of entries like

IMAP 1 Apr 2003 19:29:24.401 F 99978 19938 SSL accept
IMAP 1 Apr 2003 19:29:24.401 F 99978 19938 SSL get error 2
IMAP 1 Apr 2003 19:29:24.416 F 99978 19938 SSL accept
IMAP 1 Apr 2003 19:29:24.416 F 99978 19938 SSL get error 2
IMAP 1 Apr 2003 19:29:24.432 F 99978 19938 SSL accept
IMAP 1 Apr 2003 19:29:24.432 F 99978 19938 SSL get error 2
IMAP 1 Apr 2003 19:29:24.447 F 99978 19938 SSL accept

Does this mean SSL is in an infinite loop?

Answer

This actually means the server is waiting for the client to send data and is not a loop. One cause of this could potentially be a non-SSL connection to an SSL port.

This should no longer be a problem in builds 3136 and above as non-SSL connections are rejected by GMS SSL ports.
