I think it is standard because I read the postfix TLS enhancement doc's and here is snip from description: Overview: ========= - This is an SSL/TLS enhancement package for postfix. It realizes (well, or at least should, once it is finished) the STARTTLS extension to SMTP as described in RFC2487 and used by Netscape 4.5x. RFC2487 is "SMTP Service Extension for Secure SMTP over TLS" So, all SMTP MTA's with SSL/TLS should cooperate, shouldn't they? ---------------------------------- E-Mail: Milan P.
