Possibilities: - The proxy handling has already been done, and the issue is that the SMTP server is not configured to do "implicit TLS" on this port (expects STARTTLS). - The proxy is not actually handling this port and raw TLS is hitting the SMTP server when it is expecting the proxy handshake. My money is on the first variant (it says "SMTP syntax", not "haproxy syntax" after all). -- Viktor. -- ## 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/
