Which client are you trying to use SSL from?
You can use TLS on port 587, but not SSL.

SMTPS (SMTP over SSL) is deprecated, so you shouldn't use it unless you have too (Outlook'03 being the only case I'm aware of). If you need to use SSL with Outlook'03, you should set up port 465 for using SMTPS the old fashioned way. If you're using Outlook'03 only on a local network, I wouldn't bother.

Thanks,

If you're having problems with blacklists, TLS/SSL won't fix that. In order to get around submitters being blacklisted, you have to either configure the client(s) to use port 587 (the submission port) instead of port 25, or install spamdyke on your QMT, which bypasses filters (including rbl checks) for authenticated sessions on port 25.

Regarding Outlook specifically, it should be noted that Outlook'03 does not support TLS, and can only use SMTPS (the deprecated port 465). Outlook'07 does support TLS however, and should be configured to use this on the standard port 587.

HTH.
