I have been upgrading the security on my mail server to use SSL for POP, IMAP, and SMTP. I have been successful on using SSL for IMAP and POP on with Power Mail 5.1 on my server, but am having problems with SMTP.
I checked with another list about what port SSL SMTP uses and have been told that it uses 25, along with non-ssl smtp. However, when I try setting the Power Mail account to use ssl and manually set the port to 25, I get a protocol mismatch error on port 25 of my mail server. I tried using 465, but SMTP is not listening on that port, and I was told that no one has used that port for ssl SMTP for for years. I was told that port, "25 does both SSL and non-SSL. The clients use the "STARTTLS" command to reconfigure the connection as an SSL connection." Does Power Mail support this? ____________________________________________ Robert Snyder, Director World Campus Data Management Services The Pennsylvania State University 105 Mitchell Building University Park PA 16802 Phone: 814-865-0912 Fax: 814-865-4406 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] URL: http://www.worldcampus.psu.edu
