Consider that some servers relay though James from an internal trusted network, they do not need to issue STARTTLS, others however are relaying through a public network an are thus required to issue STARTTLS (perhaps even with client-certificate authentication). So we do not disable STARTTLS for the internal servers, but on the other hand do not require it either. --Søren > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Søren Hilmer, M.Sc.
