in thunderbird you have two options "SSL/TLS" "StARTTLS"
on port 465 you have to use "SSL/TLS" the same for imaps/pop3s on dedicated ports if port / enycryption is in the wrong combination it will not work, happens most time if you changed the ports manually while doing some tests, after that the dialog will no longer set the correct combination normally thunderbir dchanges the port to 25/465 depending on the encryption-method this is a problem in the client-configuration and not the server as long there is no firewall involved Am 18.01.2011 23:28, schrieb IT geek 31: > On 18 January 2011 22:22, Wietse Venema <wie...@porcupine.org> wrote: >> IT geek 31: >>> I have an issue regarding SSL/TLS. >>> >>> I have configured my certificates and STARTTLS works fine.
