I removed the SSL encryption from port 587, and sending mail now works
on that port.  However, I still have trouble connecting using SSL on
port 465.

I changed the service to use port 465.  I changed the Outgoing SMTP
Server by removing the ':587', and I receive the following error
message.
#v+
couriertls: connect: error:14094417:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert illegal parameter
#v-

The logs on the server show.

I'll continue to play around with it now that I have sending working.
