Re: SSL Negotiation Failed: The connection with the server has been lost

@jab1  - I'm guessing that you can't see my screenshot in Reply #13  ?

 

When is @James_B  going to fix this useless image censorship filter, that is stopping this forum from working ?

@outcast nope, obviously I can't, couldn't, otherwise I wouldn't have posted the result from the link in @MisterW 's post.

 

As to when the image editing/approval issue is going to get fixed, by Plusnet - how long is a piece of string?

Re: SSL Negotiation Failed: The connection with the server has been lost

This is quite an interesting reading regarding Eudora certificates -

        https://blog.timeoff.org/rick/2015/09/09/revisiting-eudora-ssl-certificate-failures/ 

 

IMO, although interesting for 2015, now in 2025 an alternative email program needs to be found.

 

I'm going to stop looking at this now, as trying to find fixes for Eudora is not a good use of my time.

Re: SSL Negotiation Failed: The connection with the server has been lost

Thankyou to everyone for your input. I do have Thunderbird too but have been using Eudora with no issues for the last 20 odd years so if there's a way to continue then I'll keep going!

I found some more recent info on AskWoody which has links to the Hermes files, though apparently there is also an updated version:

'The only fix is to use Pete Maclean’s QCSSL.dll update package from his HERMES Aurora work:

https://www.maclean.com/downloads/QCSSL_Update.zip 

Pete Maclean is the Hermes coder.'

Re: SSL Negotiation Failed: The connection with the server has been lost

The only way to continue using software which is not compliant with current encryption standards ... is to use use it WITHOUT encryption.  Is that appropriate?
