We need SMTP support for TLS

Our ISP shut down all our Outbound mail due to lack of support for TLS over SMTP. This is unacceptable for us and I would assume for just about any company. Thus we had to route all our mail directly to the Internet which by-passed all the security features we were paying for from our ISP. They have since patched to let us back in but we were down for about 2 hours yesterday, UNACCEPTABLE!

IBM please pay attention to those of use using Domino for our SMTP gateway. IHS is for HTTP only. A support rep from IBM sent us an email telling us to configure IHS for TLS for our SMTP server. I was shocked at the lack of knowledge about this.

Please do NOT forget many of us need a fix for TLS for SMTP SMTP SMTP SMTP SMTP SMTP SMTP!!!!

We understand that TLS 1.0 support for SMTP is critically important
We are currently working on statements regarding solutions for our clients with concerns around TLS and SHA-2.

I'll try to update these threads with links once they are available.

Our experience using IHS for SSL traffic into Domino

I have been working with IBM Support for the past two weeks to enable the IHS server on the Domino server for HTTP. So far, we have success at getting port 80 traffic through IHS to the Domino server, and are still trying to get port 443 traffic from IHS through to the Domino server - we get an error message - The Connection was Interrupted in FireFox

We used the IKeyMan utility to get the SSL certificates into the IHS system - the Domino keyring files are not used in this configuration.

Here are links to some of this, and I will post more as this evolves.

Google will start flagging this in browsers Nov1, and the the others will follow suit shortly

Here are some links for troubleshooting tips.
