Can anyone tell me why It tries ::1:25 first and fails before connecting to 127.0.0.1:25?

Not sure if this is relevant, but when I startup I get:

No idea what is already using those ports.
Any suggestions?
macOS 10.14.4
Thanks, James.

You have specified only a port number, not an address; thus, stunnel assumes the local host address. You have not explicitly told it to only use IPv4 addresses, so it tries the IPv6 local host address (::1) first; when that fails, it falls back to the IPv4 local host address (127.0.0.1).
If you change the line to "connect = 127.0.0.1:25" like for your other service, it will go straight to the IPv4 local host address.
Hope that helps!
G'luck, Peter
And in addition, if you want to know which service is already listening to a port, you can use: sudo lsof -nP -iTCP:465 -sTCP:LISTEN

Perfect, that worked - Thanks Peter
(Obvious now that I think of it!)
