In order to access an SSL socket, something special must be done during the connection(/opening) phase: then certificates are exchanged/verified and a common session key is created (used to encrypt the exchanged data). Only after this special handling it the SSL socket transparent. Your observation indicates that your socket is not opened in this special SSL way - thus, you get the raw data. Likely, you must make sure that proper SSL initialization has taken place before you hand the socket down as "stdin" to your "subprocess.Popen". -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
