      I have just upgraded to pfSense 2.3.3. After upgrade, I cannot send email notification. When I click "Test SMPT Setting" button, the error message is:

      Could not send the message to @.** – Error: could not connect to the host "mail.*.": ??

      I have tried many times and it is not possible that the problem is caused by my input error. I have also tested my email server from this pfsense by using "telnet mail.. 25" or 587 or 465, all testings are good.

      Would you please give me any suggestions to fix it. Thanks.

        Still hope suggestions and help.
        It says "could not connect to the host", but it's no problem to connect to the mail server from this pfsense machine.

          How is it configured?
          Are you using well-known mail provider or your own?
          Are you using authentication?
          Using ports 25/587 with authentication need STARTTLS and 465 need SMTP over SSL/TLS.

          I suggest you also try packet capture and see if it even tries to connect.

            See attached picture. Besides options shown in the picture, I have also tried:
            untick "Disable SMTP notification"
            use 587, 25, 465 ports
            All input are correct, no typo.

            The email server I input is correct, I tested with "telnet email-server 587", etc.

            I don't know why the error msg is " Error: could not connect to the host … ??".  The same setting worked in the old version of pfsense 2.3.5.

              To repeat: Ports 25 and 587 generally need STARTTLS. SSL/TLS generally needs to be on port 465.

              The email server I input is correct, I tested with "telnet email-server 587", etc.

              The proper test for how you have that configured would be:

              openssl s_client -connect mail_server:587

              Which would almost certainly fail.

                You're right. port 25 no ssl/tls. port 465 for ssl, 587 for tls. I have tried many different combinations.

                I just tried your command from ssh console, testing is OK (see picture).

                The problem is why cannot connect the host from pfSense notification page? I can connect to the mail server host in ssh console.

                  That is not a successful connection.

                  To test a connection to that server using encryption on port 587 you would need:

                  openssl s_client -connect mail.server:587 -starttls smtp

                  IF YOU ARE CONNECTING ON PORT 25 or 587 AND WANT ENCRYPTION YOU NEED TO USE STARTTLS

                  IF YOU WANT TO CONNECT USING SSL/TLS YOU NEED TO USE PORT 465

                    The correct command for testing STARTTLS is:

                    openssl s_client -starttls smtp -crlf -connect smtp.gmail.com:587

                    (use either Ctrl+C or type QUIT+CrLf to end)
                    Provide output (you can sanitize it a bit if it shows your cert info.

                    To test different versions of SSL, try -ssl3, -tls1,  -tls1_1 and  -tls1_2

                    Could be that your server is not supporting recent SSL versions which were disabled in pfSence…

                      He is connecting to port 587 using SSL/TLS. That will never work.

                            All above errors are not caused by input parameters or our email server.

                              Note this bug https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/7516 "Notify test buttons for smtp/growl should use new unsaved settings" and PR https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/pull/3691 that fixes it.

                              In current releases (e.g. 2.3.3-p1) you have to save the settings first, then use the test buttons. It just tests the currently-saved settings, not the changes you may just have made in the form.

                              The fix is in 2.3.4 which is coming.

                              So maybe when you are trying lots of combinations and pressing "test", you are not actually getting an effective test.

                              As the Greek philosopher Isosceles used to say, "There are 3 sides to every triangle."

                                Looking at your screenshots, I believe that something else is corrupted, possibly in the config - look at pfsense-email6.PNG - it says that it could not start TLS.
                                I would suggest you take packet capture with this setting and look at it in Wireshark - make sure it goes to the right destination, connects and tries to negotiate SSL session.

                                  I first click "save", then click test in above screenshots.

                                    Please, review this forum thread - it may have an answer for you.
                                    I did not read it in full, but it seems that there is an issue with certs used for SMTP, issued by private CA - pfSence has to trust them and some public CA certs might be missing in newer builds…

                                      Maybe it's time to simplify and apply isolation troubleshooting techniques.

                                      Remove encryption from the equation.  To protect authentication credentials, change the password or create a throwaway account for testing.

                                      From time to time some CA's are eliminated from the store.  Don't recall the error message that occurs when that happens so don't know if your error messages are due to that or not.

                                          You should really do this with port 587, save pcap file and review it in Wireshark.
                                          But even with this capture - it looks like it connects, but can't authenticate or negotiate proper SSL channel.

                                            pfSense likely missing the CA for the server cert.  As is pointed out in that thread you linked to a few posts ago.
