Implementing TLS/SSL on RIPE NCC external MX'es
[Apologies for duplicate e-mails] Dear Colleagues, After our successful implementation testing of Transport Layer Security (TLS) over the last few months, we will be implementing TLS on our external mail exchanges (MXs). We will upgrade our mail server software on 8 January 2007, followed by implementation of TLS on 10 January 2007. If you experience problems with mail delivery to the RIPE NCC after the implementation, please send a e-mail to ops@ripe.net. To do this, however, you might have to disable TLS on your MX server or send the email from a MX server that does not have TLS enabled. Regards, Brian Riddle IT Manager RIPE NCC

Cool :) Did you experience any specific problems in your preparational tests, like "if mail comes from XYZ-MTA version 7.12, and the receipient MX announces TLS, it *will* fail, all the time"?

Hi Gert, We did see a problem with "Communigate Pro" open SSL/TLS compatibility, simple fix upgrade to latest version/patch. Otherwise no problems. Regards, Brian. Gert Doering wrote:
