Both are fine, if your client stops if STARTTLS doesn't work/isn't available. (Otherwise if an interceptor could remove the STARTTLS support announcement from the server, and if the client continues in non-encrypted mode, then it would be bad. smtpmail does the right thing, though: "starttls to insist on STARTTLS" - https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/smtpmail/Encryption.html ) Best regards, Adam -- "It seems like the finals for "least helpful answer Adam Sjøgren on a mailing list" are coming up again."
