Hi everybody,

I have some problems establishing a SSL connection. I am writing on an SMTP server, 
which
should accept SSL connections.
I am sending mails with Netscape 4.7 (and Microsoft Outlook) over SSL, but the 
connection
fails, because no common enrcyption method was found:

"error: 1408A0C1:SSL routines:SSL3_GETCLIENT_HELLO:no shared ciphers"

Now my questions:

I have initialized the SSL connection as described in the OpenSSL documentation, only
SSL_accept fails with the above reason.
I tried different cipher settings, like  "SSLv3", "RC4-MD5" or the default values.
SSL_set_cipher_list returned 1, so I believe it worked. 
What is additionally needed? 

The man pages state something about certificates and keys which I need to use these
ciphers. Do I have to generate them manually with some function first,
before the client accepts the ciphers?

Thanx,
Wolfgang Marczy.
