Right.

I'm not sure; it doesn't look good, but it's not specific enough to
know exactly what's going on.

See if you get the error when you test with stunnel; with stunnel 3, I
use something like:

    ./stunnel -D debug -n smtp -f -c -r mail.actionwebservices.com:25

If you don't see the error with that, it's a client-specific problem.

Another thing to try is use an unpatched sslserver on port 465, and
see if you get the same error.  If you do, it's not a problem with the
patch, but something with sslserver, and the sslserver mailing list
can probably help.  If it only happens with my patch, I'll need to
take a closer look and see if I can reproduce it.

Thanks, I'll update it as soon as I have a bit of time available.
