The default for SSLVersions is sslvTLSv1, so it looks like your mail
server stopped accepting TLS v1.x (which it should do as older versions
are now deprecated). I assume that you are using the out of date Openssl
1.0.2 library or earlier, given that TIdSSLIOHandlerSocketOpenSSL does
not work
I came across a similar problem recently with Indy and did some
research. There is a proposed patch to support Openssl 1.1.1 and hence
TLS1.3. This is discussed on github under
https://github.com/IndySockets/Indy/pull/299

You can use the Indy Component library available from

A few years ago I did implement a SOAP based application using the Web
Services Toolkit which also used Indy as a comms package.

I often use TRegistry for cross-platform configuration data and you

Under Linux, you are using TXMLRegistry and this saves registry data in

My understanding is that when you add a "required package" what actually

paths for your project, and adds the top level .pas file for the package

Using a TPanel as a container is generally good advice for similar

I can't duplicate your problem which probably implies that we are
