Hello:
I recently came across stunnel as a solution (THE solution) to Pegasus Mail 4.63 having some sort of incompatibility with SSL versions in use at gmx.de and xsmail.com mail services.
As I was absolutely unwilling to let go of my trusty PMailo, stunnel proved to be a godsend. =-)
At first the problem was with xsmail only and after setting up stunnel everything went along perfectly well, no problems whatsoever.
Now, gmx.de is enforcing the use of SSL on ports 993, 995 and 465 instead of 110, 25 and 143 so I edited my stunnel.conf accordingly.

The issue at hand is that stunnel in not working properly now.
This is the log file for a successful connection to xsmail:

And this is the log file for a (failed) connection to gmx:

The PMail trace is this as follows:
[*] Connection established to 127.0.0.1
0016 +OK POP3 ready

0005 +OK
<< 0015 PASS XXXXXXXX
0083 -ERR You must use your full username of the form
yourusername@domain.tld to login
Figures ... It is attempting to connect to gmx with xsmail credentials.
As youcan see, for some strange reason it is connecting to gmx with xsmail settings.
Must be a *.conf file problem but I am at a loss as to what is gong on Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

You need to use a different set of ports for the gmx setup.
I have two different accounts on gmail, one personel, and one that my college now uses. So, the one identity uses the ports in the 20xxx range and the other uses the ones in the 21xxx range. It is the port numbers that need to be different, not just the names in the configuration. Also, need to set this in the configurations of pegaus to use the correct port for each connection.
[gmailpop] client=yes accept = 20995 connect = pop.gmail.com:995
[gmailsmtp] client=yes accept = 20465 connect = smtp.gmail.com:465
[gmailimap] client=yes accept = 20993 connect = imap.gmail.com:993

Just an added note. You need to restart the stunnel after making changes to the conf file, since it loads the info at startup. That is why I have all the configurations I use in the file using different port settings, and just load it as part of the startup process.
I would assume you are using windows, so would have to use the task manager to end the task, and then restart it, or just restart the machine. I run Pegasus via wine on my linux machines, so use the linux version of stunnel with no problem.
