I'm now able to send emails via securesmtp.t-online.de with ssl. The 'solved' is not quite correct since I still don't know what I've done wrong. I now inform you what I've done in case someone else has similar problems.

Getting the mails from securepop.t-online.de (with POP3+SSL) works so I stay with getmail but I tried msmtp instead of sendmail. The connection to securesmtp.t-online.de was made but the mail not sent with the error message 'the server sent an empty reply'. So I looked for something similar and found nbsmtp. I installed it, created the necessary ~/.nbsmtprc and added in muttrc | set sendmail="/usr/local/bin/nbsmtp -h securesmtp.t-online.de -p 465 ... With this I got in /var/log/maillog: | nbSMTP[4131]: Creating SSL connection to host (securesmtp.t-online.de:465) | nbSMTP[4131]: Error issuing MAIL command | nbSMTP[4131]: Server said: '5.7.0 Authentication required.' | nbSMTP[4131]: Something went wrong. Mail NOT sent. \ | Activate debug for more info I looked for a debug option in man nbsmtp and found | -D Enable debug to syslog so I added a -D in muttrc: | set sendmail="/usr/ports/mail/nbsmtp/work/nbsmtp-1.00/nbsmtp -D \ | set sendmail="/usr/local/bin/nbsmtp -D -h securesmtp.t-online.de -p 465 ... But now I didn't get an error message with debug info but better: now the mail was sent (but I don't know why; I did nothing but adding the -D option). The mail was sent and /var/log/maillog says: | nbSMTP[12626]: Creating SSL connection to host (securesmtp.t-online.de:465) | nbSMTP[12626]: Authentication succeded [johannes-maria] | nbSMTP[12626]: Recipient accepted [johannes-maria@t-online.de] | nbSMTP[12626]: Mail sent for johannes-maria@t-online.de. Closing connection Thanks very much for your patience and help, Johannes-Maria
