Hi All,

We use stunnel to send emails from our scanners to our hosted mail provider (that now only accept TLS connections).
This has been working well for a number of years, but just recently the scanners (all Lexmark) have sporadically been giving errors of 'connection failed'.

If I check the stunnel logs, the failed send has an extra line in of TLS socket closed (SSL_write) with 418 unsent byte(s)

Below are 2 examples, 59 was sent successfully, 60 was not.

Has anyone come across this before?
Our mail provider has send limits in place of 50 every 10 minutes, but I am confident we are not reaching those amounts.

Any help appreciated.

Regards, Stephen
