The Windows system update on October 11, 2021 included a change to disable TLS 1.0 and 1.1 by default.

- Windows blog post: [Plan for change: TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 soon to be disabled by default](https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2020/03/31/tls-1-0-tls-1-1-schedule-update-edge-ie11/) - Windows support article: [KB5017811—Manage Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.0 and 1.1 after default behavior change on September 20, 2022](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/kb5017811-manage-transport-layer-security-tls-1-0-and-1-1-after-default-behavior-change-on-september-20-2022-e95b1b47-9c7c-4d64-9baf-610604a64c3e) - Blog post: [Windows 10: Beware of a possible TLS disaster on October 2022 patchday](https://borncity.com/win/2022/10/11/windows-10-achtung-vor-einem-mglichen-tls-desaster-zum-oktober-2022-patchday/)

Our QMT v1.3 system with this issue does support TLS 1.2 for smtp and submission, but Courier IMAP only supports up to TLS 1.0. Results via testssl.sh:

## smtp and submission

         SSLv2      not offered (OK)
         SSLv3      offered (NOT ok)
         TLS 1      offered (deprecated)
         TLS 1.1    offered (deprecated)
         TLS 1.2    offered (OK)
         TLS 1.3    not offered and downgraded to a weaker protocol

## imap

         SSLv2      not offered (OK)
         SSLv3      not offered (OK)
         TLS 1      offered (deprecated)
         TLS 1.1    not offered
         TLS 1.2    not offered and downgraded to a weaker protocol
         TLS 1.3    not offered and downgraded to a weaker protocol
         NPN/SPDY   not offered
         ALPN/HTTP2 not offered

Because the error should only occur when TLS 1.2 is not available, I think the `Ox800CCC1A` in Outlook occurs when doing an IMAP transaction.

[This thread](https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg43073.html) started by Janno Sannik a couple years ago contains some hints how to upgrade or replace Courier for better TLS support.
