Hi all, 

I am trying to install a lets encrypt certificate generated via certbot
that comes with debian/ubuntu.

It gives me the following files
cert.pem
chain.pem
fullchain.pem (a combination of the previous two it looks like)
privkey.pam

I disabled the generate self-signed key in scfg.  But I left both
cryptlib.key and ssl.cert in place.

Things that i have tried.
1.  
jsexec certtool --import ./fullchain.pem
result: "!JavaScript  /home/synchronet/sbbs/exec/certtool.js line 70:
Error: CryptLib error -43"

The fullchain.pem looks the same as the example here
https://wiki.synchro.net/module:certtool

I copied the example there as a sanity check and that also fails with
the same error.

2. 
I tried adding the folloing to the bottom of the [Mail] section in
sbbs.ini:
	Secure = true
	CertificateFile = ./ssl_certs/fullchain.pem
	KeyFile = ./cryptlib.key

result: cannot connenct to port 995


Has anyone been succesful in using a LetsEncrypt cert in this manner
that they got directly from certbot? 

Thanks in Advance.
