How to I configure Email Protection using MTA Mode in Sophos xg v17

Hey Ramon Cayuela 

Please reference the following pocket guide and KBA's:

Protect Cloud hosted Email Server-MTA Mode

• Sophos XG Firewall: How to configure Email Protection in MTA mode
• Sophos XG Firewall v17: How to configure Smarthost
• Sophos XG Firewall: Office 365 email setup
  • Refer to this KBA for the setup but with your third-party email cloud provider info used.

I'd also advise to inquire with your third-party email provider to confirm the details of their configuration.

Hope this helps, please feel free to reach out if you run into any issues.

Regards,

Hi FloSupport

I followed you information guide but I share with you my configuration because I using outlook can't send email, I receive the following error: Your server does not support the connection encryption type you have specified. Try changing the encryption method. Contact your mail server administrator.

Here I try using Port 25 and 465 and nothing.

These is all my setting, let me know if I have any bad configuration or the issue is with my mail provider. 

Thanks a lot.

Hi Ramon,

Apologies for this inconvenience, the XG (at least for v17.1.3 MR-3 and below) currently only supports the following authentication methods:

• PLAIN
• Digest MD5
• CRAM MD5

Please verify that this is also configured on your mail providers end.

Regards,

I am not quite sure, if this is also true for V17.5 because of the switch to exim.

It is worth to test it!

Feel free to try it with V17.5 Beta!
