I'd say it's a problem with secure connections. You see, to establish
one, you need a server supporting it and the correct implementation
incl. certificates.

A feature of TB is to use the best secure method even if the server
doesn't use it. But in one of the last versions that was changed to
revert to the next possible authentication, AFAIK. When TB connects to
one of my mail servers (don't know if it is POP or SMTP) the log
always shows "unknown authentication method" but TB nonetheless
connects.

Sorry to be that vague, but this is more a question for some of our
more tech savvy members, who seem to be vacationing.
