Package: exim4
Version: 4.63-3
Severity: wishlist


I've used a guide at 
http://www.technovelty.org/linux/tips/exim4ssmtp.html to get outbound 
ssl connections to my ISP's secure mail server working, and wondered by 
exim4 didn't support outbound mail connections over ssl using port 465?

Regards,

Arthur.
