I'm aware of that. My patch was originally to do some tests on an IMAP server. But it is an generalized approach allowing you to do any textual handshake before you setup TLS. > See http://www.mail-archive.com/openssl-dev@openssl.org/msg20600.html > for a patch that adds an -ehlo option. > > (It also has some discussion of you about a more generalized way of > doing it.) Oups... Yes it has. Time flies like an arrow... My idea from last year still is good, but my patch is a first step do it... > Anyway, s_client's -starttls currently takes 2 protocols as argument, > smpt or pop3.

Fixing the SMTP case would be good, but allowing arbitrary textual handshake before TLS starts wides the area of possible uses...
