This is intentional. Clients should be configured to use STARTTLS. If
that's not possible, they should use SSL. If that's not possible they
can use an encrypted password, but support for that will probably be
deprecated in the future, as encrypted passwords require passwords to
be store in clear text, which isn't exactly secure either.
Thanks Eric,
Wow , I have the red face -- i just need to change the client.
Yes if I change my client -- then it works.
I was "confused by the matter that my Old ( current qmt mail server ) is
of such vintage that one does not use TLS.
I do see one oddity
while it is working sending & recieveng.
When I frist go to use ... it can time out with
"
Sending of message failed.
The message could not be sent because the connection to SMTP server
mailhost.data-wranglers.com timed out. Try again or contact your network
administrator.
"
but -- then will be just fine , quick as one would expect.
I am wondering If I have some sort of php time thing ...
I vaugely recall some some mentioning a time out in a conf --- which has
a default of 5 but they set theirs to 1
and or
DNS
specifically running bind or
djbdns resolver <http://thedjbway.b0llix.net/djbdns/dnscache.html>
I am looking at
https://github.com/QMailToaster/qmailtoaster-util/blob/master/qt-install-dns-resolver
https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg35600.html
what can I look at or test to see if this is my issue?
Thanks much - i do appreciate the wisdom
