[stunnel-users] Connection issues after upgrading to 5.51 (macOS)

[Dennis Preiser]

Hi,

I have been using stunnel for quite a long time on macOS without any
problems. Specifically, I use this to connect to an nntps server. This
is the corresponding config section:

| [nntp2]
| client      = yes
| accept      = 127.0.0.2:1119
| connect     = news.individual.de:563

With 5.50 everything goes well:

| 2019.04.06 10:48:05 LOG5[2]: Service [nntp2] accepted connection from 127.0.0.2:49366
| 2019.04.06 10:48:05 LOG5[2]: s_connect: connected 130.133.4.10:563
| 2019.04.06 10:48:05 LOG5[2]: Service [nntp2] connected remote server from 192.168.200.102:49367

I can read news without further log entries.

After the upgrade to 5.51 I can not read any news anymore. As soon as I
want to read an article the connection breaks down:

Downgrading to 5.50 solves this issue for the time being. Are there
any changes between 5.50 and 5.51 that could explain this behavior?
