Adding "protocol = smtp" was the solution to my problem. Thank you Leonardo!

David,

Perhaps the issue is on the server side.

A quick look to the SMTP server on smtp.smarshmail.com will show

220 smtp.smarshmail.com ESMTP Service is ready on Server 1 (EQ). EHLO 250-smtp.smarshmail.com Hello [123.456.790.101] 250-SIZE 36700160 250-PIPELINING 250-DSN 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-STARTTLS 250-AUTH GSSAPI NTLM 250-8BITMIME 250-BINARYMIME 250 CHUNKING QUIT 221 2.0.0 Service closing transmission channel

I would try adding the following option to your stunnel configuration

protocol = smtp

I'm not certain but looks like you need to issue the STARTTLS to negociate the secure connection with this server. Check the stunnel manual for further explanation on the option http://www.stunnel.org/static/stunnel.html

Hope this helps

I need to configure stunnel to connect to smtp via TLS and am not able to get it to work either running 4.53 or 4.54beta. Perhaps I have the conf file created incorrectly.

The stunnel.conf is as follows: +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ; Debugging stuff (may useful for troubleshooting) debug = 7 output = c:\temp\stunnel.log

; Disable FIPS mode to allow non-approved protocols and algorithms ;fips = no

; Disable support for insecure SSLv2 protocol options = NO_SSLv2

[SMARSH-pop3] client = yes accept = 127.0.0.1:110 connect = pop.smarshmail.com:995

[SMARSH-smtp] client = yes SSLversion=TLSv1 accept = 127.0.0.1:25 connect = smtp.smarshmail.com:587 +++++++++++++++++++++++++

Pop works great. The log on an smtp session is as follows:

Is sTunnel using SSLv3 rather than TLSv1? If so how do I force TLS?

Thanks...
