It's important to distinguish SSL and TLS. With SSL you use port 465

default SMTP-port 25 and initiate SSL later as shown above.
The monit socket sets SSL_VERSION_AUTO so SSL version or TLS should
be transparent and automatically setup by OpenSSL during the
handshake. So no need to distinguish between ssl|tls, at least that
is the theory.
Ah I was too fast when replying and did not see that STARTTLS first
speak plain text before negotiating SSL. Ok, in that case distinguish
between ssl|tls _is_ important.
