SSL encryption

[Flavien]

Hello everyone ,

I wonder if you know a list of mail provider wich doesn't use the SSL encryption or if a future update will allow this,

Unfortunately, almost every mail provider use this kind of encryption (Google, hotmail, yahoo, etc...) and one of our customer need a mail provider wich will be compatible with Unitronic's PLC,

Thanks for your help

One that I have found and tested working in the past was Lavabit.

Thanks you very much Jas,

Tested and approved

It seems like lavabit does not allow any new accounts

Does anybody knows another mail provider wich could be use by a PLC?

Thanks

Hello,

I have been using 1and1 with my PLCs and it has been working great. The price is also very affordable.

One of the things we do here when a customers email is not usable, is to send the email to an in house account (we have an email account set up just for machine to machine emails) on our work email account and then just use an "Outlook" rule to simply forward all emails recieved from the PLC address to the needed GMail, Hot Mail, Etc.

Thanks

Thanks jaredc and Walkerok for your ideas but I really need another mail provider and wich is free and simple for our customers (as Lavabit)

Any other ideas?

I'm using the outbox of telenet webmail ( what doesn't need SSL encryption ) : out.telenet.be , but the only problem I have is that the ip adress of this mailserver changes almost every time you ping this (see my topic on email account)

just take a look at gmx.com

maybe this will be good ?

haven't tested this yet

Thanks to you Pascal, it seems like I found my solution,

Gmx works and top of that, I can use the same I.P. address even if it change sometime (I don't know why, but if it works, who cares? )

By the way, I was unable to make the DNS solver work, if anybody has an example of this function, it will be welcome!
