Hello,

I noticed that many Exchange Servers nowadays have problems with TLS. Is there a way to make a fallback to plain if there is a timeout on MAIL FROM? I currently use smtp_tls_security_level=may

I found some 100's domains on different IPs which have this problems right now, here is a example server:

15F5450139E: to=<x...@kindersleytransport.com>, relay=mail.kindersleytransport.com[207.195.36.62]:25, delay=244097, delays=244096/0/1.1/0.16, dsn=4.4.2, status=deferred (lost connection with mail.kindersleytransport.com[207.195.36.62] while sending MAIL FROM)

I can also verify this when i do a "openssl s_client -starttls smtp -connect mail.kindersleytransport.com:25 -debug" the TLS initiation works but when you enter MAIL FROM: t...@example.com you will get an timeout.
When using just a simple telnet without TLS, sending mails will work fine!

all this servers are showing the same (old?) version: "Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service, Version: 6.0.3790.4675"
Maybe there is a way to disable STARTTLS when this prompt is shown?

Best regards

Matthias Schneider
