Hi Folks,
I'm having issues with Thunderbird on Leap 15.5 when connecting to a smtp server. TB returns a rather unhelpful error message. Is there any way to turn on a debug mode in TB? I unfortunately don't have access to the logs on the server side. There's always tcpump and wireshark, but there must be an easier way.
Regards, Lew
Sorry, Lew, I just realized there's no 15.5 package available for swaks. There are lots of easy cli mail server connectivity testing examples available online using telnet and openssh, i.e. plain text: $ telnet smtp.server.tld 25 secure: $ openssl s_client -starttls smtp -crlf -connect smtp.server.tld:25 -starttls protocol send the protocol-specific message(s) to switch to TLS for communication. -crlf this option translates a line feed from the terminal into CR+LF as required by some servers. regards, Carl
