I offer both SSL/TLS (465) and STARTTLS (587) to my users. In the Mac Mail I don't see an option for differentiating the connection security between SSL/TLS and STARTTLS other than specifying the port manually. There is a checkbox to Use SSL regardless of what port option is used (which I obviously have checked). Anyhow, I changed the port on my Mac to 465 and it still worked for me. Then again, I also just tried switching it back to the "default (25, 465, 587)" option for the port and it now works with that also, so I'm not sure what is going on? -scott
