[ZT]System.Net.Mail with SSL to authenticate against port 465
System.Net.Mail 有时候在SSL SMTP Server下发送不成功, 找了一会儿, 貌似应该是这个问题了
Sending mail using System.Net.Mail with SSL will fail:
System.Net.NetworkCredential aCred = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("myacct", "mypassword");
SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient("smtp.mail.myserver.com", 465);
smtp.EnableSsl = true;
smtp.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
smtp.Credentials = aCred;
System.Net.Mail only supports “Explicit SSL”.
Explicit SSL
System.Net.Mail only supports “Explicit SSL”. Explicit SSL starts as unencrypted on port 25, then issues a STARTDLS and switches to an Encrypted connection. See RFC 2228.
Explicit SLL would go something like: Connect on 25 -> StartTLS (starts to encrypt) -> authenticate -> send data
If the SMTP server expects SSL/TLS connection right from the start then this will not work.
Implicit SSL
There is no way to use Implicit SSL (SMTPS) with System.Net.Mail. Implicit SSL would have the entire connection is wrapped in an SSL layer. A specific port would be used (port 465 is common). There is no formal RFC covering Implicit SSL.
Implicit SLL would go something like: Start SSL (start encryption) -> Connect -> Authenticate -> send data
This is not considered a bug, it’s a feature request. There are two types of SSL authentication for SMTP, and we only support one (by design) – Explicit SSL.
