I checked my change to the code, as I said it is trivial, and at that
time we reached the conclusion that it worked for STRATLS, port 875, but
didn't work for TLS/SSL, port 465.
In fact the registry change will not change anything since the
executable is just using cygssl-3.dll, which supports all versions of
TLS, up to 1.3 .
Something else is not working in eMail. My copy doesn't even try to
connect, just dies. So the code needs to be enhanced/debugged again.
It would be interesting to find why TLS/SSL never worked.
