Disorder in term SSL, TLS and simple mail

[Christophe CRIER]

Hi,

I have installed and tested poweremail to send email in multiple configuration :
 - SMTP simple (without authentication) : Not working because poweremail try to login on SMTP server when SMTP server don't accept connection.
 - SMTP with TLS : Work good but disorder in terms because in form i have selected 'use SSL'.
 - SMTP with SSL : Not working in python 2.5 (not supported by smtplib), smtplib support SSL connection in Python 2.6 (but now it's buggy yet)

You can find my suggestion in attachement.

PS: I have also had a possibility to send an test email when we test the outgoing connection.

Regards

Hello,

Please add SMTP_SSL support, there are some severs that don't work with starttls(). We can't use poweremail without doing replacing the starttls() code with something like this:
                    if rec.smtpssl:
                        serv = smtplib.SMTP_SSL(rec.smtpserver, rec.smtpport)
                    else:
                        serv = smtplib.SMTP(rec.smtpserver, rec.smtpport)
                    serv.ehlo()
