        @noplan said in email notification Secure SMTP Connection ?:

        Secure SMTP Connection

        As it is stated next to the check mark box, Secure SMTP Connection enables SMTP over SSL/TLS.

        So if your server supports STARTTLS you must not enbable Secure SMTP Connection, but "Validate SSL/TLS". These are different protocols.
