Hello everyone ;)
I have a big problem with connect to my email via SSL/TSL.
I use thunderbird and can not login to my account. Works fine without SSL !
Thunderbird show this monit : "The configuration could not be verified. Please check your Login and Password! "
It is interesting that Outlook 2019 connects over SSL well .
I testing Thunderbird ver.78 and 52 - no change
I have Letsteecrypt certificates for hostname, domain, mail, smtp, imap.

What log. show You ? Please help me :)
 
This solutions not working for me ;-/
Thunderbird show this monit : "The configuration could not be verified. Please check your Login and Password! "

check also security / messages logs
 
Yes I have ssl ssl Letsencrypt for my domain -> Thunderbird use secured ports SSL/TLS , STARTTLS , I check sslshoper.com is good

IN security log i have
Code:
Dec 20 12:14:35 vps kernel: Firewall: *TCP_IN Blocked* IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=fa:16:3e:24:a0:26:00:09:0f:09:14:21:08:00 SRC=93.174.93.123 DST=77.55.235.93 LEN=40 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=250 ID=58727 PROTO=TCP SPT=40010 DPT=40104 WINDOW=1024 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0
perhaps this is problem ?
 
I disable CSF and create new email account , dann I try to connect Thunderbird is the same problem ;-/
I think that is no problem with Firewall CFS .

What ports do you use?
What if you use ssl only on smtp, or only on imap?
 
Hello k1l0b1t :-)
Thunderbird finds the settings automatically

I try change mail.domaincom and numbers ports- is the same problem
Works good with no SSL !
 
I wonder what the problem is ?
TLS versinon ? SSL version ?
It could be TLS version on the mail server, should be 1.2 but if it's lower, then version 58 of Thunderbird should have worked. So that was confusing me. Is your mailserver running tls 1.2?
 
Hello Richard G
Yes you are right, the latest version of Thunderbird does not support TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1.

Works good with no SSL !
The MX for mailserver is mizera.info.pl


mizera.info.pl.None77.55.235.93


Also try other computer and internet provider , sometimes for example windows versions has problems with wrong old or changed tls settings and reaching that machines / domains

Your tls check was on port 25..

and what if you use regular SSL, instead of STARTTLS, on port 993 for imap. and same for SMTP (port 465)
Change doesn't help

Yes there was a time security where the ssl tls settings in windows registry changed, or by hand to have a fix for that problem , so i gues windows registry , there are some fixes with microsoft but not always working try the help sections on their support site , i don't know anymore to long ago.

Cyphers ....

and defaults what should handled first 1.1 1.0 and that kind of stuff was problem then..
