Hi Rodney

I have tried

root@XXXXXXXXXXx /vol/otrs/bin #openssl s_client -host smtp.gmail.com  -port 465 -starttls smtp
CONNECTED(00000003)

It looks as if I am indeed getting through to the gmail smtp servers?

Regards
Kenneth Thorman

You need to do starttls for smtp.gmail.com. Use

openssl s_client -host smtp.gmail.com -port 465 -starttls smtp


-starttls protocol
          send the protocol-specific message(s) to switch to TLS for
          communication.  protocol is a keyword for the intended protocol.
          Currently, the only supported keywords are "smtp", "pop3",
"imap",
          and "ftp".
