[stunnel-users] error:1408F10B:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:wrong version number

[Theodore W. Hildebrandt]

I was running stunnel-4.08 under Windows XP-Home, using MS IEX as
browser
and Netscape 4.6 for e-mail.  My ISP is AT&T Worldnet and I am accessing

it via DSL and home wireless NW.

Here is stunnel.conf:

client = yes

[pop3]
accept = 110
connect = ipostoffice.att.net:995

[smtp]
accept = 25
connect = imailhost.att.net:465

As instructed by AT&T, the e-mail servers have been specified as
"localhost", both POP-3 and SMTP.

The problem is that while I can download messages, I am unable to send
e-mail because the "peer disconnects", and the log file carries the
following messages:

2005.03.24 10:18:00 LOG5[2960:232]: smtp connected from 127.0.0.1:2194
2005.03.24 10:18:00 LOG5[2960:2428]: smtp connected from 127.0.0.1:2197

error:1408F10B:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:wrong version number

I have been able to run "openssl version" with the result:

"OpenSSL 0.9.7e 25 Oct 2004"

but I am unable to obtain the other outputs specified under the
instructions
for the "Stunnel-Users Mailing List".

I have tried replacing libssl32.dll and libay32.dll with versions more
recently downloaded (but with the same origination dates) and no
improvement.

So I am sending this message from another system running Win98 and
stunnel-4.05,
also using Netscape 4.6, which seems to work o.k.

Please tell me how to get the right version number to work with
stunnel-4.08,
and WinXP.  Additionally, it would be nice to know how to obtain the
outputs
suggested in the instructions for Stunnel-Users Mailing List.
