I am using sTunnel 4.25 for Windows to send and receive e-mail from a GoldMine client.  sTunnel has worked well over the years but am having an issue with a particular mail host, Live Office.  They have implemented SMTP SSL on port 25.  The debug log is as follows:

2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:5356]: smtp accepted FD=224 from 127.0.0.1:1907

2008.07.14 13:45:11 LOG7[2136:4944]: smtp finished (0 left)

I am looking for help to troubleshoot the connection problem.  Is this an sTunnel issue or a mail server issue?  Are there conf file settings to address the issue?

Thanks, DavidS
