Unable to use Starttls , 554 SMTP authentication error
Unable to use Starttls , 554 SMTP authentication error
I am stuck at this problem for so long and lost
Using Centos 6.8 , i setup SPF/DKIM/rdns , all are working . But not able to use smtp server in an external application (interspire). When i try to send an email from interspire, Unable to use starttls error comes up. If i disable tls_advertise_host than email goes but in spam.
Domain is techside.co.in, using it as an email server.
smtp: mail.techside.co.in
port: 25/587

Re: Unable to use Starttls , 554 SMTP authentication error
Thanks, but i already tried that , although i am not able to send email from that as well. it keeps loading without any error.
I commented tls_advertise_hosts = * and i am able to send email from port 25/587 and getting 10/10 on http://mail-tester.com however email still goes into pan specially in gmail.
I am desperate to resolve the issue. If i uncomment tls_advertise_hosts line in /etc/exim/exim.conf i get the same error "Unable to use STARTTLS".
NOw i have used letsencrypt as well but same issue.

Re: Unable to use Starttls , 554 SMTP authentication error
I haven't been ab;e to resolve this and safe to say that now i won't be following up on this.
however now i am trying luck with only port 465 connection with interspire. It keeps loading when i test the smtp to send an email.
I am getting this error in exim logs:
2017-01-23 03:30:51 TLS error on connection from techside.co.in [142.4.26.51] (SSL_accept): error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0)
2017-01-23 03:30:51 TLS client disconnected cleanly (rejected our certificate?)
there seems to be some issue with SSl for which i have used letsenrypt certificates.
i checked her
checktls.com , everything looks great here as well..! not sure anymore whats wrong.

It is because Google blocks sign-in attempts from apps which do not use modern security standards (mentioned on their support page). You can however, turn on/off this safety feature by going to the link below:
