Solaris Express Developer Edition What's New

Set SMTP to Use Transport Layer Security

This security enhancement is new in the Solaris Express 8/05 release.

The Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) can use Transport Layer Security (TLS) in version 8.13 of sendmail. When enabled, this service to SMTP servers and clients provides private, authenticated communications over the Internet, as well as protection from eavesdroppers and attackers.
