Instead of this, use the 3d option: "Use the STARTTLS command ..."
STARTTLS is the standard method for doing SSL/TLS in ESMTP.
the option you tried to select means using old smtp inside a
pre-established SSL session ("wrapper mode SSL") and is not a standard.
it is needed by some non standard compliant mail software (mostly in the
MS world, although outlook 2007 has been reported to support STARTTLS)

by default, smtps is disabled in master.cf. you can enable it if you
want to support non-compliant mailers (mostly outlook prior to 2007).
