Hi, this message is not about exim problems, it's about problems involving exim.
As you all heared, Richard Stallmann as resigned from it's positions. Not the topic here, but it caused me to send him a letter, which I do once in a while. Unfortunately, the admins at gnu don't think much about security, as their mailserver, revealed itself to be a very outdated exim 4.71 . $ nc eggs.gnu.org 25 220 eggs.gnu.org ESMTP Exim 4.71 Wed, 18 Sep 2019 09:35:02 -0400 But that's not the main problem, but the possibly the reason for the bigger problem: $ openssl s_client -connect eggs.gnu.org:25 -starttls smtp -tls1_2 CONNECTED(00000003) 140424124348224:error:1425F102:SSL routines:ssl_choose_client_version:unsupported protocol:ssl/statem/statem_lib.c:1922: Because: $ openssl s_client -connect eggs.gnu.org:25 -starttls smtp New, SSLv3, Cipher is AES256-SHA Server public key is 2048 bit Secure Renegotiation IS NOT supported Compression: NONE Expansion: NONE No ALPN negotiated SSL-Session: Protocol : TLSv1 Cipher : AES256-SHA ... this server does only speak TLS 1.0 from 1998. If you have the opportunity to inform those admins, please do so. I can't, because our server does not longer speak outdated-broken-beyond-repair-protocols from the last millenium and refuses plaintext smtp too ;) Best regards, Marius -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
