Message from email-command:

Did you set
SMTP_PORT=587
?
And ... in email.conf :
SMTP_AUTH = 'LOGIN'
SMTP_AUTH_USER = ...
SMTP_AUTH_PASS = ...
Unless you pass all of those on the command line.
In any case, it may not work because eMail's SSL support hasn't been
changed for modern SSL.
I'm using a patched version (line 175 in eMail/dlib/src/dnet.c: const
SSL_METHOD* method = SSLv23_method();), which doesn't work with SSL
(port 465), some times works with STARTTLS (port 587).
