Re: [tor-talk] Tor TLS error



Which version (number, distribution) of OpenSSL are you using? The line
number s23_clnt.c:607 might tell us something.

Could you get a packet capture (Wireshark, tshark, tcpdump, etc.)?

It's probably only a few KB of the packets which are relevant to the
failed connection attempt.

True, but I actually want to *not* do that.

My guess is that the problem relates to the SMTP server not accepting
raw TLS on port 465. Is the perhaps an MS Exchange server?

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Mail_Transfer_Protocol :
Server administrators choose whether clients use TCP port 25 (SMTP)
or port 587 (Submission), as formalized in RFC 4409, for relaying
outbound mail to a mail server. The specifications and many servers
support both. Although some servers support port 465 for legacy
secure SMTP in violation of the specifications, it is preferable to
use standard ports and standard ESMTP commands[14] according to RFC
3207 if a secure session needs to be used between the client and the
server. Some servers are set up to reject all relaying on port 25,
but valid users authenticating on port 587 are allowed to relay mail
to any valid address.

Can you use port 587?
