## Changes Since 2.5.5

### New imapd.conf options

- tls_required (default: 0). Set this to 1 to require a TLS session for ALL authentications, not just plain ones (thanks Carlos Velasco)

### New cyradm options

- `--tlskey keyfile`: use certificate with keyfile to authenticate with server
- `--notls`: disable StartTLS negotiation
- `--cafile cacertfile`: Use CA certificate file to validate server certificate
- `--cadir cacertdirectory`: Use CA certificate directory to validate server certificate

Thanks Leena Heino and Carlos Velasco

### Bug fixes

- Fixed: cyr_synclog checks its arguments more strictly to avoid producing junk sync loc entries
- Fixed: reconstruct no longer segfaults on failure on Solaris 10 (thanks Marty Lee)
- Fixed: cyradm metadata implementation cleaned up and output made consistent (thanks Leena Heino)
- Fixed: timsieved no longer discloses name/version if ServerInfo is Off or Min (thanks Carlos Velasco)
