Blat and STARTTLS

[jrander76]

In using blat and I get an error "Must issue a STARTTLS command first".

I am on a Windows XP system.

I have started stunnel and it is running before I execute the blat command from the command line.

I am using blat version "Blat v2.6.2 w/GSS encryption (build : Feb 25 2007 12:06:19)".

Can some one tell or show me how to issue a "STARTTLS command first".

Here is the blat command line that is executed:

set to_eMail=***@email.com
set from_eMail=***@email.com
set subj=-s "Test Blat"
set try=-try 2
set smtpServer=-server smtp.email.com
set smtpPort=-port 587
set user=-u ***@email.com
set password=-pw xxxxxx
set x=-x "X-Header-Test: Can Blat do it? Yes it Can!"
set debug=-debug -log blat.log -timestamp
set hostname=-hostname localhost

blat sendfile.txt -to %to_eMail% -f %from_eMail% %subj% %smtpServer% %smtpPort% %hostname% %user% %password% %try% %debug% %x%

You started stunnel, but you are not using it. Stunnel would provide the
TLS session needed by your server. Your smtpServer variable should look
like this:

set smtpServer=-server 127.0.0.1

Then in your stunnel.conf, you need to an entry that points to your mail
server on its correct port, such as this:

accept = 25
connect = smtp.email.com:465
