I have been trying to setup LabTech Email settings. Unfortunately, it accepts only email settings that are not encrypted; no SSL/TLS i.e POP 110 and SMTP 25. Tried to setup SMTPSSL in the same, but no help.
We have our email hosted on a GApps account, so there is no option of opting out of SSL. I have read about setting up Hmail Server and STunnel but our Labtech server is hosted on an EC2 by LabTech where we dont have access to setup mail servers.
I have tried with Restricted Gmail SMTP server (aspmx.l.google.com), but POP is still a mess. Also, could not successfully figure out SMTP settings.
What i want:
- Any free email that allows SSL-less authentication(and forward all emails to my support email)
- An alternative to installing mail server on the hosted dedicated-application server(as i have no access to it)
Any any help is greatly appreciated.
Update: Requirements:
Bypass SSL authentication of GMAIL service
or
Setup to redirect mail, but could be installed outside of dedicated server
Question seeking for service recommendations ( i.e. email providers ) are not on topic here at Superuser. Evidence that this happen is the extremely poor spam post by Pearse. – Ramhound – 2014-09-25T15:24:52.027
You have several different problems and what you're asking is not very clear. Don't assume a solution... Just state your question clearly and we can suggest answers.
You can send out e-mails through Amazon so Google does not need to be involved. What your issue is being able to pull e-mail hosted on Google Apps into LabTech?
is labtech a client or server or both? – barlop – 2014-09-25T21:37:46.687
@Ramhound i am not asking for who provides better service. Rather anyone provides this service or a pass-through – pulsarjune – 2014-09-26T05:25:05.447
@sunk818 i want emails sent out from a monitoring system(on a dedicated server, where i have no access) to any email. An SSL-less email need to be configured on the system to be able to send-out emails. Iff i had access to the server, i'd have setup a Hmail. I am asking for any other way or the least an SSL-less email service. – pulsarjune – 2014-09-26T05:31:15.707
@barlop Labtech is Svr-Clt setup, but it has nothing to do with my requirement – pulsarjune – 2014-09-26T05:31:57.213
We dont manage the server. LabTech Inc hosts LabTech servers on EC2 and provide us with just basic access(absolutely no access to EC2). The link shows how to set this up on a managed server. LabTech has notified that they will not be installing 3rd party stuff on dedicated servers.. – pulsarjune – 2014-09-26T08:37:15.350
I don't know if I understand you correctly: Having SMTP only on port 25 and POP only on port 110 doesn't mean you cannot use SSL. Okay, actually it does in the SMTP/POP-inside-SSL-sense, but the other way around might still work: Did you try out whether STARTTLS works? You could figure this out by
telnet
ing to the server and ask it politely (telnet <host> 25
and typingEHLO myhostname.example.com
and look out whether it includesSTARTTLS
into the response). SSL-ports for SMTP, POP and IMAP (465/tcp, 995/tcp and 993/tcp resp.) are deprecated. – Andreas Wiese – 2014-03-25T12:59:05.713@AndreasWiese yes. i have tried with the ports 25, 587, 465 for SMTP and 110,995 for POP3. Nothing helped :( – pulsarjune – 2014-03-25T13:03:31.477
