[stunnel-users] Vista questions

[Michael Wilson]

I am running 4.27 on Vista and can successfully start it and use Blat
to e-mail via my gmail account using stunnel.

However, I have two questions:

Q1:  I would like to close down stunnel after sending my e-mails.  How
can I do that on Vista?

Q2: Why do I get the following when I enter "stunnel -help" at the command line

A window with the heading "Stunnel 4.27 on Win32 (not configured)" that says:
Stunnel server is down due to an error.
You will need to exit and correct the problem
Click OK to see the error log window
