smtp via xbase

I use the xbase++ smtpclient functions to send emails via IONOS.COM SMTP SERVER.

I send these smtp requests via port 465. oSmtp := SMTPClient():new( Alltrim(cSMTPServer), nPort ) (where nPort is 465 and cSMTPserver is 'smtp@ionos.com'

IONOS is now saying they will not support TLS 1.0 or TLS 1.1 anymore. I need to be using TLS 1.2

Their email states "Please make sure that encryption (SSL/TLS) is enabled in your devices or programs."

From the Alaska Documentation it appears that specifying port 465 uses SSL. I'm trying to determine if it also uses
TLS 1.2.

Does anyone use these settings? I just don't want my emails to start failing when the deadline of Aug 9 runs out.

Thanks
Bob Volz

hi,

the same is with Web.DE which will Stop work on 01.07.2022 with TLS 1.0 / 1.1

Problem : i donĀ“t know how to "test it" when use "other" like OpenSSL

! Tip : try Port 587 instead of 465

Thanks Jimmy; I will look at port 587 and test. I'm pretty sure the Alaska 2.0 system Smtp system uses TLS 1.2
I guess I will find out.

Hi Jimmy;

I'm not sure if xBase++ includes those DLL's but xb2net does. Mine are current I believe.

Thanks

Xbase++ doesn't use Open SSL. All SSL-functions are wrapped in ASINET10.DLL.
