Is this SMTP client going to send all mail to a small set of TLS enabled
relay hosts? Or are you choosing to not be able to send any email to
the vast majority of domains whose MX hosts don't offer TLS?

Why disable both SSLv2 and TLSv1?! Leave this setting at its default
value, or disable just SSLv2. Does your client or server correctly handle
SSLv3, but fail to interoperate via TLSv1?

And does not mislead too many. A tutorial needs to not only provide
working settings, but also explain the use-case to which they apply
and why the settings are the right ones to the use-case at hand.
