[stunnel-users] init_ssl: s_poll_wait timeout

Tue Mar 6 21:56:53 CET 2007

I am using a Eudora client configured to use STARTLS to send mail 
through stunnel to a sendmail server.  The stunnel config is as follows:

cert = /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem
key = /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem
socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1
socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1
options = DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
delay = yes
TIMEOUTconnect = 300
TIMEOUTbusy = 300
setuid = smtpauth
setgid = smtpauth
debug = 7
client = no
foreground = yes
pid =

[smtps]
accept = 465
connect = localhost:25
protocol=smtp

When I send mail the connection is established with port 465 on 
stunnel but it fails to negotiate the ssl session.  THis is the log:

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
