Well I just tried it. Works for me! Thumbs up. Has this been added to the
wiki yet?
My only question now is how do force the remote client to authenticate? I mean
I set this up, and authentication indeed takes place when I set up my mail
client to use TLS and log in with a username and password, however I can connect
without authenticating and still get away with sending messages.
