Description Chris Ricker 2002-04-03 22:04:50 UTC 
SSL support in evolution appears to require that the server also be running the
obsolete smtps (TCP port 465) service -- it can't just negotiate STARTTLS over
TCP port 25 as is now the standard (RFC 2487).

Not sure if this is a bug, a feature request, or something I've misconfigured on
my end ;-).  My guess is that it's a feature request....
Comment 1 Jeremy Katz 2002-04-04 20:29:33 UTC 
STARTTLS is on the feature list for the next version of evolution unless I'm
completely misremembering things
