Chris/Ditty. Have you tried optimizing your config - on both sides? For example, please search for TIMEOUTbusy in https://github.com/mtrojnar/stunnel/tree/stunnel-5.58 &/| https://github.com/mtrojnar/stunnel/tree/stunnel-5.57 On 12/21/20 13:09, dittyadler(a)gmail.com wrote: > Hi, > > I'm running stunnel version 5.58 on Windows, > everything works perfectly besides that sometimes stunnel gets stuck for 30 seconds - > Nothing special in stunnel log, except for the 30 seconds delay: >

EHLO localhost causing problem in smtp-relay.gmail.com
by sreyas-n＠hcl.com 11 Dec '20

11 Dec '20

We note that always EHLO command sent by sTunnel to SMTP server always been populated as "localhost". Note some well know SMTP server (or) SMTP relay servers such as smtp-relay.gmail.com, etc reject further communication with SMTP clients (as here sTunnel), if they receive initial handshake EHLO request itself as LOCALHOST. Please refer this link on why SMTP servers/ relay servers reject EHLO command with LOCALHOST - https://support.google.com/a/answer/2956491. Note because of this reason, we could use sTunnel as our encryption channel to communicate with SMTP server/relay server. Is there any specific reason behind in hardcoding the EHLO command with LOCALHOST always even in latest version of sTunnel - 5.57 version..? Always what would be in sTunnel functionality, if we change the EHLO command to populate as hostname (or) FQDN instead.

Stunnel and CAPI engine: Issues after OpenSSL upgrade on server side
by Brent Kimberley 10 Dec '20

10 Dec '20

It looks like IBM might have been able to get MS CAPI to work with TLS1.2. That said, I think it would make more sense to switch to CNG API.
