The use of SMTPS is rather standard these days - (thunderbird, k9
outlook etc.. ) all support this.
Without openSSL one can't have a smart-host transport with: driver = smtps
Hello,
From where did you get that idea? I cannot find any reference in the
specification about "protocol = smtps" being openssl-only.
Thanks ..
Turns out I was following an incorrect example --
They had
driver = smtps
Should be
driver = smtp
protocol = smtps
A breadcrum for others: According to exim.org docs one must recompile
and change USE_OPENSSL=yes in Local/Makefile to USE_GNUTLS=yes
It could be there needs to be two packages - exim4-gnutl and exim4-openssl
At the very least the README.Debian should start out with which
version it is.

What info are you missing?
ametzler@argenau:~$ dpkg -s exim4-daemon-light
Package: exim4-daemon-light

and includes support for TLS encryption

file:///usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.Debian.html#TLS
Both exim4-daemon-heavy and exim4-daemon-light support TLS/SSL using the
GnuTLS library and STARTTLS.
