Hello, list!

According to http://www.qmailtoaster.net/notls.html , all outbound SMTP should be using TLS unless a domain is configured explicitly not use it. However, without even creating the directory /var/qmail/control/notlshosts every message I send from my server to gmail.com is going unencrypted. The /var/log/qmail/send/current file has entries like:

2020-10-15 14:29:58.418313500 new msg 8428251
2020-10-15 14:29:58.418315500 info msg 8428251: bytes 574 from <[email protected]> qp 511025 uid 89 2020-10-15 14:29:58.418336500 starting delivery 1: msg 8428251 to remote [email protected]
2020-10-15 14:29:58.418337500 status: local 0/10 remote 1/60
2020-10-15 14:29:59.220407500 delivery 1: success: <[email protected]>_173.194.204.26_accepted_message./Remote_host_said:_250_2.0.0_OK__1602786599_w13si301qtv.16_-_gsmtp/
2020-10-15 14:29:59.220525500 status: local 0/10 remote 0/60
2020-10-15 14:29:59.220563500 end msg 8428251

The message in gmail shows up with the padlock having a red line through it, indicating it was not encrypted during transit. Since I see the 250 in the send log, I would assume that should my server attempt to use TLS, there should be a, "starttls" getting logged?

My /var/qmail/supervise/send/run file is simply:


#!/bin/sh
exec /var/qmail/rc


Did I do something wrong that outbound SMTP is not even asking for TLS?
