Or better yet, remove the key file and make sure both
entries are
empty. If you don't need the encryption, I wouldn't use
it. It
only prevents accidental reading of email by someone
directly in the
database... unless you have a way to make sure only the
webserver can
read the key for only the Maia application... Anyone that
can
access the key file can access the email. And even then,
the
superadmin can always turn on the option to read user's
email...
The encryption feature is there for specific client that
requested
for a specific situation; I really don't find very useful
and it
wastes CPU time.
OTOH, it would certainly be good to put Maia on an SSL host.
That
is accomplished outside of Maia, same as any other web
server
application.
