allbrig Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 Rock Sign Question to TCH guys. Is there any plans to add SMTPS (SMTP over secure (SSL) connection? Today my monopolistic ISP decided to block outgoing port 25 - and voila! - I cannot send mail anymore through my TCH hosted domain. SMTPS would be lifesaver for me (and probably other miserable sufferers). So, TCH, are you ready to come for help? Or maybe other solution besides using webmail? Quote
allbrig Posted September 7, 2004 Author Posted September 7, 2004 Wow ! It worked!!!! Thanks a lot, TCH-Dick. Now it's time for a drink. Quote
TCH-Dick Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 Also just discovered that SSL SMTP is on port 465 Quote

allbrig Posted September 7, 2004 Author Posted September 7, 2004 465 is the standard port for SMTPS. I've tried that before and it did not seem to work. Although hard to believe, but THEY could've blocked that too... I'll try it again tonight. Frankly, I feel much more comfortable sending mail (and especially authenticating) over secure channel as opposed to clear. Quote
