SFOS 17.5.4 MR-4-1 MTA Mode GMail says no route to host but grey listing is off. Reports from some clients says that there is an error with the TLS encryption. StartTLS rejected

We upgraded from 17.1 MR3 to 17.5 MR3 over the weekend and are now getting errors related to SSL/TLS

  • After 2 hours on the phone with Sophos support we found out that the original TLS certificate / Key pair had a password as is best practices but the password didn't seem to be saved anywhere that the SMTPD engine could use. Ended up using OpenSSL to remove the password from the .key file and uploaded it again.

    It works and e-mail is flowing but we are getting a chain error now on the TLS test site.

     Certificate 1 of 1 in chain: Cert VALIDATION ERROR(S): unable to get local issuer certificate; unable to verify the first certificate
            So email is encrypted but the recipient domain is not verified

    We did upload the intermediate certificate but the root CA cert was already there.

    Since mail is flowing (mostly) again I will leave the troubleshooting of this error for another day.

  • I know it's not a fix, but with XG you can revert back, to the old firmware, easily, just to get things moving :-)

    I hope you do not have the Sophos C0nnect issues though in 17.5 MR-4-0 ;)

  • This virtual appliance is dedicated to protecting a mail server so I don't use Sophos Connect on this particular box. It was upgraded all the way to SF 17.5 MR4-1 (17.5.4.429) so I guess I'm at the bleading edge now :)
