The postfix config parameters listed in code listing 6.1 seem only to enable SSL encryption for incoming mail. I added these parameters to enable outgoing SSL encryption: smtp_use_tls = yes smtp_tls_note_starttls_offer = yes And that resulted in outgoing SSL encryption working. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure the software components per the guide up to and including chapter 6. 2. Send mail to recipient on other server. 3. Have the recipient reply. Actual Results: No SSL used for the outgoing mail in step 2. SSL being used for the incoming mail in step 3. Expected Results: Encrypt in both directions. Adding the two extra postfix parameters in postfix's config fixed that.
Created attachment 70033 [details, diff] content patch I implemented the fix described by the bug reporter. I added it Code Listing 6.1 along with a short, helpful <comment> describing what it does.
Fixed in cvs. Thanks for reporting.
