Sorry - I should have said TLS (typo). I am using Thunderbird 3 as the test client. BTW - I am using Spamdyke if that makes any difference. I have tried the SSL/TLS and the STARTTLS options. Both fail. The first one times out and the second one complains that the server doesn't advertise this feature.

Which client are you trying to use SSL from?
You can use TLS on port 587, but not SSL.

SMTPS (SMTP over SSL) is deprecated, so you shouldn't use it unless you have too (Outlook'03 being the only case I'm aware of). If you need to use SSL with Outlook'03, you should set up port 465 for using SMTPS the old fashioned way. If you're using Outlook'03 only on a local network, I wouldn't bother.
