> SSL support is not working [1], and it complicates the installation process. It causes the inclusion of various libraries, and Java suuuuuucks for SSL support.
> It would make James a lot simpler to remove SSL support and make SSL termination somebody else's problem. These days it should be easy to use a proxy (like nginx) or an ingress (for example in Kubernetes) to perform SSL termination.
> It would be one less thing to maintain in James, one less thing that can go wrong, one less step to take just to get a James server working, and a step closer to providing good user support.
> {quote}[1] I define "working" by meaning that as a user, I follow the instructions but it still does not work as intended.
