OE and Secure SMTP through F5 BigIP Load Balancer...
hi
escreveu na mensagem oups.com... Hello... I am trying to configure Outlook Express to use port 25 and SSL to send mail through my smtp server(s), which are load balanced behind an F5 BigIP 6400 device. When I have the SSL certificate installed on the BigIP, OE cannot send mail through port 25 with SSL. If I configure both OE and the BigIP to use port 465, it works fine. Also, if I do not terminate the SSL session on the BigIP and install the certificate on the server itself, I can send mail via port 25. To confuse matters even further, other mail clients work just fine when the certificate is on the BigIP and I am using port 25 (the full Outlook client configured as a POP client and Mozilla Thunderbird are 2 that work). F5 does not believe this is an issue with their device, since other mail clients work fine and they state that they do not even see the OE client making an SSL request to the BigIP device when they look at network traffic dumps. Has anyone out there ever seen or heard of an issue similar to this? I have been banging my head against the wall for a couple of weeks now, and it is starting to hurt! Note: I do have the OE client configured correctly for secure smtp....and I have tried this from several different workstations.... Thanks! Chris |
