I am using sTunnel 4.25 for Windows to send and receive e-mail from a GoldMine client. sTunnel has worked well over the years but am having an issue with a particular mail host, Live Office. They have implemented SMTP SSL on port 25. The debug log is as follows:
2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:5356]: smtp accepted FD=224 from 127.0.0.1:1907 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:5356]: Creating a new thread 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:5356]: New thread created 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:4944]: smtp started 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:4944]: FD 224 in non-blocking mode 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG5[2136:4944]: smtp accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:1907 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:4944]: FD 232 in non-blocking mode 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:4944]: smtp connecting 64.70.94.196:25 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:4944]: connect_wait: waiting 10 seconds 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:4944]: connect_wait: connected 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG5[2136:4944]: smtp connected remote server from 127.0.0.1:1908 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:4944]: Remote FD=232 initialized 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:4944]: SSL state (connect): before/connect initialization 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:4944]: SSL state (connect): SSLv3 write client hello A 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:4944]: SSL alert (write): fatal: handshake failure 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG3[2136:4944]: SSL_connect: 1408F10B: error:1408F10B:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:wrong version number 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG5[2136:4944]: Connection reset: 0 bytes sent to SSL, 0 bytes sent to socket 2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:4944]: smtp finished (0 left)
I am looking for help to troubleshoot the connection problem. Is this an sTunnel issue or a mail server issue? Are there conf file settings to address the issue?
