Hi, If you google that error: " Unsupported or unrecognized SSL message", you'll get this advice:
*The error "Unsupported or unrecognized SSL message" typically indicates a problem with the SSL/TLS connection between a client and server. This often happens when the client is trying to use SSL/TLS with a server that doesn't support it, or when the client and server are using incompatible SSL/TLS protocols or versions. It can also occur if the client is connecting to a regular HTTP server using HTTPS. * Generally, this usually is an indication that your configuration is incorrect in some way. You may want to double check that your configuration in DSpace matches the recommended configuration of the mail server you are trying to use.
