Hi, I have written an email client application to send/receive email. However, gmail accounts requires that email clients use SSL. In order to do this, I am running stunnel in the background. I am able to retrieve emails from gmail pop3 server, but I am not able To send email thru gmail smtp server. Gmail requires that email clients Support SMTP authentication, and also requires TLS.

I am receiving the following errors in stunnel.log when trying to send email from gmail accounts.

Attached is my stunnel.conf file. Is there something I am missing to cause these errors ? Does stunnel support SMTP authentication ?
