Re: Change port in nginx

I was hoping to find someone with knowledge of iredmail and nginx setup.
Specifically if these directives are to be used and what file they would be placed in.
RequestHeader set "x-webobjects-server-port" "443"
  RequestHeader set "x-webobjects-server-name" "yourhostname"
  RequestHeader set "x-webobjects-server-url" "yourhostname"

or if this should be done differently.

This post refers to Apache sogo.nu/support/faq/how-to-configure-apache-as-frontend.html
Have not been able to find on nginx.

Change the port number in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/00-default-ssl.conf.
If you're running some web applications which triggers http -> https redirection, please also change the port number in redirected URL. e.g. /etc/nginx/templates/*.tmpl.

Thank you for the tip.
I did the following:
edit sogo.tmpl
$host;
to
$host:5443;
edit 00-default-ssl.conf
listen 443 ssl http2;
listen [::]:443 ssl http2;
to
listen 5443 ssl http2;
listen [::]:5443 ssl http2;
edit 00-default.conf
$host$request_uri;
to
$host:5443$request_uri;
and
Opened port in firewall.
