Re: SMTP relaying from Android

It Looks like you do not have the ssl service running on your server or your email installation is not compiled to run with ssl 

Can you run the cmd  

#svstat /service/qmail-smtpd-ssl /service/qmail-smtpd-ssl/log

If yes then what do you get when you tail the qmail-smtpd-ssl log . See below 

#tail -f /service/qmail-smtpd-ssl/log/main/current

Or do 

#taill -n 50 /service/qmail-smtpd-ssl/log/main/current 

To see the last fifty lines on the ssl log ...

There is a RCM client for Android that works via HTTPS to my server for both reading and sending but it is a very kludgey app.  The standard Android app works very nicely for reading mail - the incoming server is set up with the server name and:
