Subject:Re: [courier-users] Calling a Mail Server's TLS Bluff

I'll second this as a wish-list item -- I recently had to turn off starttls for outbound messages as well, and was surprised that Courier didn't gracefully fall-back.

best, Jeff

Is there a flag, available today, that can be set that tells courier to _try_ TLS? In other words, if STARTTLS is announced and you call the bluff, rather than failing to deliver and deferring the message it would retry without calling STARTTLS. If there isn't a flag that does this, can it be added to a wish list? For karma sake, it would be nice if it would log the failed STARTTLS attempt so that one could contact the postmaster of that domain and notify him.
